“The Pink Ribbon Comedy Tour” bus pulled onto Railroad Avenue in Opelika Thursday toting four wry individuals and a big pink marquee, “laughter is the breast medicine.”

The tour sponsors research and development of the cure for breast cancer thru Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

“Komen for the Cure” is a massively inclusive network of international grassroots activists and breast cancer survivors passionately working to save lives by raising money for breast cancer research.

The comedians hosted a show at Eighth & Rail early in the night and came to Auburn for a second show at the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity house.

“This is our first time having a comedy show,” said Richard Patton, owner of Eighth & Rail. “I wasn’t sure about the crowd it would bring at first, but as soon as we booked it we got a lot of people showing interest.”

Law Smith, a comedian on the tour, is a former employee of Eight & Rail and an Auburn alum.

“I used to work the door for my last two years here,” said Smith.

Smith’s act touched on what its like to coming back to the plains, living out in Los Angeles now and mistakenly shouting “War Eagle” to people wearing orange and blue around the country.

“The Pink Ribbon Comedy Tour” came to town on week six of its four month long tour.

“I think we’ve been 9,000 miles so far,” said Brendan Gleason, comedian.

The tour is taking boob jokes and snide remarks all across the nation with stops at the Gotham Comedy Club in New York, N.Y.; Zanies Comedy Club in Chicago, Ill.; The Comedy Store in Los Angeles, Calif.; and many others in between.

“Komen for the Cure” was started by a promise Nancy G. Brinker made to her dying sister. In 1982 Susan G. Komen lost her life to breast cancer and since that day Brinker has orchestrated a hugely successful movement to help fund breast cancer research, find the cure and save lives.
