Pardo Me, Sir

Comedian Jimmy Pardo is handsome and suave. He's appeared on That '70s Show and has a Comedy Central special. Sadly, Pardo has also been labeled a "comic's comic," which means he's unlikely to open with lamers like "Who's married to a bitch?" or "What's up with black people?" So if that's what you're looking for, pop in that Larry the Cable Guy DVD and don't head to Hyenas for Pardo's headlining weekend this Thursday through Saturday at Hyena's Fort Worth, 605 Houston St. Showtimes are Fridays at 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. and Saturdays at 8 and 10:30 p.m. Tickets are $10 with a two-item minimum. Call 817-877-5233.
