She screamed for his pants.
As he circled around the stage at the O’Connell Center on Wednesday, comedian Daniel Tosh couldn’t help but notice the voice in the crowd calling for him to strip.
“I’m not going to do that,” Tosh said. “It’s good to know whores get into UF.”
Tosh, best known for his show on Comedy Central, “Tosh.0,” performed in front of a crowd of 4,900.
Throughout his routine, he poked fun at topics such as sex, his sexuality, college, basketball and Tim Tebow.
Accent and Student Government Productions collaborated to bring the comedian to campus.
He was paid $66,000 to perform for a limited audience, citing that larger crowds make him uncomfortable. In 2001, Tosh opened for comedian Jim Breuer in front of 51,000 people at UF’s Gator Growl.
Starting at 1 p.m., hundreds of students sat on the sidewalk in anticipation of the show.
Meghan Teitz, an applied physiology and kinesiology junior at UF, was the first person to get to the building, arriving at Gate 4 at 11 a.m.
Though Tosh claims that Florida is “flat, hot and dumb,” he grew up in Titusville with his father, who is a preacher, his brother and two sisters.
In 1993, he graduated from Astronaut High School then studied marketing at the University of Central Florida.
Tosh spent a good amount of his stand-up ripping on women.
He said women set themselves up for judgment because they take so long to get ready.
He also poked fun at UF’s athletic program as he congratulated The Gator Nation for the basketball national championships won in 2006 and 2007.
“Did Tim Tebow win those for you?” he asked jokingly.
As he left the stage, the audience cheered him on with a standing ovation.
