Emily S. says, "Sandy was great! He kept everyone laughing and knew how to interact with an audience very well. There were not enough servers which delayed dinner and he started later without a complaint. He ended the show with everyone still laughing and stayed even later talking to people and letting them take photos. Great guy and I highly recommend him."See more
