John Floyd  

Having been called a mixture of Louie Anderson, Tim Conway and Mark Twain, John Floyd's stand-up will please everyone and embarrass no one.

If you need a clean, original and very funny performer for your next meeting or convention, then look no further than John Floyd. His straight, just for laughs show "Just Downright Funny: Tall Tales From A Short Man" will make your event one that no one will soon forget.

John first did stand-up comedy in a school talent show when he was only 9 years old and he has been making people laugh ever since. After graduating from college and working in radio for two years, a friend of his dared him to enter an open mic competition. He did it just so his friend would stop bugging him, won the $50.00 first prize, and has never looked back.

Since 1993 John has done nearly 3,000 shows for over a million people at comedy clubs, colleges, corporate events and cruise ships. "You know you've worked a lot of cruise ships when airport employees in Mexico say, 'Welcome back, SeƱor Floyd'," he jokes.

In that time he has worked with such entertainers as Martina McBride, Franki Valli, Michael Bolton, Chubby Checker, Jamie Foxx, Caroline Rea, Tommy Chong, Sherri Shepherd, Soupy Sales and Dave Chapelle just to name a few. He has also performed for such companies as Hardee's, Wachovia, Met Life, Aetna, The United Way, The North Carolina Board of Realtors, The South Dakota Bar Association, Coca Cola and The Canadian Mafia(seriously) among others.

Floyd's southern charm and ability to see humor in almost everything makes audiences love him from the minute he hits the stage.
