Ron White - Jacksonville, FL

If you're a true fan of this comedian then you know you "can't fix stupid."

Ron White, the Blue Collar Comedy Tour guy who coined the above phrase, comes to the Jacksonville, FL stage at the Times Union Center March 20, a drink in one hand, cigar in the other. (Source: Jacksonville.com).

Nicknamed "Tater Salad" by himself for more than one encounter with the police, White hails from Fritch, Texas and "seems to channel Dean Martin," according to Mercury News.

White, who was once nominated for a Grammy, garnered his share of fans as part of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour which was the number one comedy concert as of 2003, research shows.

The comedian is known for such lines as "If you kill somebody in Texas, we'll kill you back!"

Others include such jewels as:

"Diamonds....That'll shut her up.....For a minute!"

"The next time you have a thought let it go."

"I believe if life gives you lemons, make lemonade then find someone that life gave vodka to and have a party."

"I had the right to remain silent but I didn't have the ability."

"I wasn't drunk in public. I was drunk in a bar."

A trivia website about White states that one of his pet peeves is other comedians who criticize Larry the Cable Guy. White also calls his son Marshall "Tater tot."

"Ron's first solo comedy CD 'Drunk In Public' was released in Nov. 2003 showcasing the insightful and hilarious White, who manages to be both razor-sharp and blunt," states eventful.com.

The comedian's "inspired comic mind finds a dozen sources of humor," as stated by onlineseats.com
