Funny Office Awards

Funny Office Awards
We have been your #1 source for funny office awards long before Michael Scott handed out The Dundies on NBC's hit show, The Office.

Of course, the list of awards Michael Scott handed out varied from boring (Pam won the "Whitest Sneakers Award") to the inappropriate (Kevin took home the "Don't Go in There After Me award").

But it is possible to have fun awards in a office setting without getting in trouble with human resources. Here are a few great links to get you started:

  • Funny office awards - the funny office awards phenomenon started right here on LarryWeaver.com. I'm still touring the country hosting funny awards shows at offices across America.
  • Funny office awards - 101 Funny Employee Awards is still the best source for highly funny and appropriate office coworker awards.
  • Funny office awards - click "office awards" at the bottom of the page to find a free printable certificate.

Targeting the SMERF Market Segment

Clean Comedy Acts for Special Events. That's what you can expect to find at LarryWeaver.com. The site has undergone a lot of changes over the past 15 years. Our most recent redesign reflects our renewed focus on providing comedy acts for Association, SMERF & government meetings.*

*No, not Papa SMERF. I'm talking about the Social, Military, Educational, Religious, and Fraternal market segment.

In the past we have featured musical acts and novelty attractions as part of our core offerings. And while the economy has forced other agencies to expand their offerings to survive ("Hire a Comedian! Book a DJ! Groom your Dog!), we've decided to go the opposite direction. We are now more niche than ever.

Crazy? Maybe. But my reasoning is simple: booking comedy is my passion. If I have to offer other products and services that I'm not enthusiastic about just to make ends meet, I may as well go get a "real" job. It might finally make Mom happy, but who would provide clean comedians for the SMERFs?

And don't worry -- if you need to hire a DJ or get your dogs nails clipped, I'll be happy to recommend you to some fine folks down the street.

Fireworks Jokes - Redneck July 4th

July 4th safety tip for Southerners: Don't drink and set off fireworks!



Rednecks love fireworks and beer -- a deadly combination. Every July 4th around the South rednecks blow themselves up left and right. See, the terrorists have got it all wrong. They should stop trying to build an underwear bomb and just open a roadside fireworks stand outside of K-Mart. Just hand out Old Milwaukees and M-80s and we will blow ourselves up for you. That's not jihad - that's Yee-had!
