Honestly, we think this was the best show we've had in a while. Our students are usually really hard to get a response from and he seemed to do it with ease. I'm not just saying that either. Not very many comedians that come get a response from our audience like they did for Sammy, so for that thank you!

Our performance with Sammy went great, thanks! The students gave him a standing ovation, which has never happened with any comedian as long as I’ve been here.

Sammy Obeid was great. He was very funny and interacted well with the audience. It was Dad's Weekend at our school and he was very respectful of this event. His material was phenomenal. I really enjoyed having him and will recommend he comes back next year.

Our students at SUU really enjoyed Sammy. He catered the demographic of our students at this campus which was really appreciated. Sammy showed up on time even though he had a show one hour before our show time. It's been a pleasure working with you and Sammy.

Sammy Obeid is one of the best comedians we've ever had! He performed two shows for us and both were outstanding. He's a rising star. Book him while you can!

I really enjoyed his show a lot and we appreciate him coming out to dinner with us. It was also the first time than an artist has self-promoted on twitter using our hash tag and that helped to get some extra people to come that might not have shown up otherwise.

Our students had a great time last week with Sammy's performance. He had a number of students who had recognized his work on some other shows like Conan. I think his Q&A section really had the students laughing and allowed him to delve into some other comedic acts. He also stayed afterwards to speak with a number of students and other individuals who were interested in getting to know him as well. Please share our appreciation for him attending campus.
