Over the weekend, comedian and actor Nick Swardson was removed from the stage during a show in Colorado for allegedly being too drunk to perform.
According to those in attendance, Swardson was “incoherent” and “bombed out of his mind” during his set at the Vilar Performing Arts Center in Beaver Creek, Colorado.
After about 20 minutes, Swardson’s mic was turned off, as was the stage spotlight, before somebody came on stage to get him off.

“Just casually woke up on TMZ. Travel tip: don’t drink and take edibles in high altitude. F—— brain diarrhea. I’ll make it up to you Beaver Creek!” Swardson
“We apologize for the negative experience you may have had at this evening’s performance with Nick Swardson.
