Stand-Up Comedian and Entertainer Spence Roper

Born and raised in an isolated valley in Northern Utah jam-packed with ancestors of Brigham Young and Utah State University Alumni, Spence Roper brings a unique perspective to the stand-up stage with his observational PG to PG-13(ish) comedy. If you were a zoo animal that didn't know you were a zoo animal and thought all the people coming to see you were going to hell because they weren't IN the zoo with you where they could not leave ever because they were in a glass zoo cage with you, that's the perspective Spence brings. It's a really good time watching him perform and not like the Twilight Zone at all, despite that living-in-the-zoo analogous comparison you just read.
Audiences love Spence Roper because he's very funny (especially for a zoo animal, but also for human being, which he is) and nice, loves books, NPR, building treehouses, and the colors blue, green, and brown. He is also great with kids. Most importantly though, he loves to make people laugh. Whether it's at a comedy club, corporate event, as a host for the local county fair awards ceremony or the Golden Globe Awards*, he'll make sure it is fun, funny, and something you will want to have him do again and again so he can afford to keep driving high end vehicles like his 2002 Chevy Cavalier to wherever you need him to go that does not require four-wheel drive.

I will be hosting the FTC Robotics Championships at Weber State University in Ogden on Feb. 21st. This is a great event which I am excited to be a part of. It's ROBOTS PLAYING GAMES.  There is no way it could not be fun. The kids have all worked very hard on their robots and, as these are the championships, we will be watching the best of the best compete.  Volunteers are still needed so if you would like to help, please go here to sign up: https://my.usfirst.org/FIRSTPortal/Login/VIMS_Login.aspx?eventid=14973

Hope to see you soon and possibly get a real website soon as well, but given the choice between the two, I definitely choose the first one. Who wants to spend more time looking at the internet, right?
