Comedy in the Fast Lane: Sam Kinison’s Rock Star Life

One Night in Houston…

There was one night in Houston when Kinison burst out after a stool he sat on collapsed. He was already self-conscious about his weight, so when the stool broke, he shouted, “What is this cheap piece of sh**?” and threw the stool to the floor.

He then picked up a heavy wooden chair from the audience and threw it at the wall. After staring at the wall for a few moments, he simply said, “Well, I can’t follow that. Good night,” and walked off the stage. A riot ensued.
