Bill Maher was exceptional!
Plane late due to weather. Medical emergency in the audience which required an ambulance. Throughout it all Bill Maher was unbelievable! He hits the nail on the head about the condition of our country! I’d go again and again!

Bill Maher was awesome!
The fact that someone collapsed during his show and the ambulance was called. Bill was respectful stopped everything until the person was taken out. Even when people where cheering for him. He stopped them and said let’s get this taken care of first. Even when some jerk started screaming tthat this is America and we have resources to get the man on a stretcher and get him out of there. Security stopped him immediately and escorted him away. 20 minutes later after Bill asked us to applaud the first responders the show went on. I will definitely see Bill again without a doubt!

Laughing with Bill Mayer
What a stupendous comedian! I laughed hard and loud because he was so funny. I watch him on HBO some times and I knew this would be the best concert in the series. Thanks for bringing him to WinStar!!

WinStar Bill Mahar
Was late 30 minutes due to weather. Then the teleprompter was above the stage so he had to look up to see what was next. Then unfortunately some in the audience got ill and stopped the show for 30 minutes (not the person fault). Bill did a good job watching to assure treatment was provided. Lighting seemed poor for Bill had to move in and out of the shadows.. His performance was very good and those attending liked him. Not sure if room was best suited though.

If you are a Bill Maher fan the show was what you would expect. Several things happened that should not be held against Bill Maher. First, the show was 30 minutes late starting due to weather conditions in the Thackerville Ok area keeping Mr. Maher from arriving. I would have thought that Mr. Maher would have arrived earlier than 30 minutes before the show. Secondly, there was an illness in the audience that stopped the show maybe 30 minutes after it started for at least another 30 minutes. Seating in the arena was horrendous, very small chairs and people packed in like sardines.

Maher Tour was Fantastic!
I bought these tickets for my husband's birthday. We had such a good time - despite the (brief) delay in starting due to the bad weather, and the delay during the show due to the medical emergency from an audience member (yes, it was that kind of night!). He was spot-on and so funny in his comments. The audience was with him from the start, and even that medical emergency didn't dampen anyone's spirits to continue on (the person ended up all right, from what we were told). He is a professional, and yet ad libs with the audience and makes you feel like he's just coming up with this stuff, even though you know he's got it down pat. He's a funny, intelligent man. Worth the money. Worth the trip. Worth the time.

Bill Maher was awesome but I do get he is not for everyone. Winstar's AV dept needs to work on their lighting issue. Have the show, Bill was in the in the shadows and very hard to see.

Great show!!!
Bill Maher was outstanding, but the venue lighting was terrible.

I laughed so hard...
Bill was having a bad day. His flight was delayed due to bad weather, the teleprompter required him to look straight up to the sky to see it, and an audience member had a medical emergency in the front row. Despite (or because of?) these misadventures, Bill was at his funniest! I've never laughed so hard & was incredibly sad when the show ended. Thanks for the relief from this crazy world, Bill!

Bill Maher at WinStar 7/8/2018
The show was very good - we watch every Friday night so knew what to expect. I felt bad for Bill (and the guy who had the health emergency) but he recovered well. He needs to go across the nation to get people fired up enough to vote out our existing administration. The venue needed to do better at the teleprompter and the lighting - was really bad.

Bill Maher on Tour
As fearless as any stand-up to take the stage, Bill Maher has never been shy about letting audiences know what he's thinking. With the razor-sharp wit he's brandished since his start in New York's comedy scene in the late ‘70s, Maher's candor has made him not just a comedy icon but one who's keenly attuned to the ever-changing worlds of politics and popular culture.
In his regular live appearances, Maher flaunts the same caustic but clear-eyed humor that's made HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher a television institution since 2003. Skewering idiocies, banalities and hypocrisies from across the political spectrum, Maher doesn't flinch from controversial topics of the day, and he finds laughs in subjects that other comedians don't dare to touch.
Bill Maher Background
No subject in politics or culture is safe from Bill Maher's reliably ruthless wit. Politically incorrect and proud of it, he is a comedian and commentator who plays by no one else's rules. This quality has made him a favorite of audiences and TV viewers for over four decades.
After cutting his teeth at his hometown's legendary comedy club Catch a Rising Star in the late ‘70s, the native New Yorker gained a wider profile through appearances on The Tonight Show and Late Night with David Letterman. He got his chance to show off his own skills as a talk show host when Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher debuted on Comedy Central in 1993. The Emmy-winning late-night political show continued to garner laughs and controversy on ABC from 1997 to 2002.
Since 2003, Maher and his guests have enjoyed free rein on Real Time with Bill Maher, the fearless and freewheeling talk show that begins its 18th season on HBO in 2020. But as busy as he may be on his own show and as a guest commentator on CNN, MSNBC and elsewhere, Maher is always ready to demonstrate his enduring prowess as a live stand-up in venues throughout the U.S. and Canada.
