From November 14th to November 18th, AEG & HBO will be hosting The Comedy Festival at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas.

The five night fest promises the return of Dave Chappelle; a special night of "Tourgasm" starring Dane Cook; a live version of MTV's "Nick Cannon Presents Wild 'N Out"; our mom's favorite: Tom Joyner's "Oh, Oh, Oh, Comedy Show" featuring Mike Epps, Mo'Nique, Damon Wayans, and Katt Williams; perennial "D-list" celebrity comedienne Kathy Griffin; "Sex and The City's" Mario Cantone; the masters of too-good-for-tv humor Dave Attell and Louis CK; an adults-only late night special hosted by Bob Saget; Triumph's Poopapalooza II; Sarah Silverman; and a loving evening with the Las Vegas comedic legend Don Rickles.

LAist has a pair of tickets to throw your way to one of the following shows: Sarah Silverman, The Tom Joyner Comedy Show, Don Rickles, Puppet Up!, Triumph's Poopapalooza II, Wild n' Out, Sierra Mist Comedy Challenge, Bob & Tom Radio Show, Dave Attell, Mario Cantone, Bob Saget, Kathy Griffin, Pablo Francisco & Gabriel Iglesias.

To enter, all you have to do is find a video of a stand up comedian on YouTube or Google Video or Break or somewhere, put the comic's name in the comments section below along with a link to the video.

When posting in the comments remember that no one can see your email address except us (and Triumph), so make sure it's accurate as we will be notifying the winner thru email. Deadline for entries is 4:20pm on Tuesday.

You come to LAist because you want independent reporting and trustworthy local information. Our newsroom doesn’t answer to shareholders looking to turn a profit. Instead, we answer to you and our connected community. We are free to tell the full truth, to hold power to account without fear or favor, and to follow facts wherever they lead. Our only loyalty is to our audiences and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen our community.

Right now, LAist has lost $1.7M in annual funding due to Congress clawing back money already approved. The support we receive from readers like you will determine how fully our newsroom can continue informing, serving, and strengthening Southern California.
