Pavich humors CSC with small-town jokes

After enduring a ride from Denver to Chadron in a propeller plane, comedian Matt Pavich performed to a small crowd of 30 students in the Bordeaux/Lakota/Ponderosa rooms of the Chadron State College Student Center at 7 p.m. Friday.
Pavich, seemingly used to performing in large cities, mentioned that he was immediately struck by Chadron’s lack of public transportation.
“I know you guys don’t have a subway here,” he said “I’m not even sure you have busses or a taxi. I need a taxi to the airport. This is a big problem.”

Pavich brought up other aspects of city life besides the abundance of public transportation, such as the time he met a vegan with terrifying face tattoos while in a subway and a massive fight at a McDonald’s restaurant he claimed to have witnessed, before moving on to critiquing corporations on social media.
“I think we’ve got, like, three months left on Earth,” Pavich went on to joke. “And I think it’s Google’s fault. Google has set the bar for crazy way too high. I go to Google with my deepest, darkest secrets. And I go to type it into Google, but before I can even get halfway, Google finishes my sentence, and a little box drops down,” only for him to find even stranger queries in the auto-suggestions box.
“Why did you come to Nebraska?” an audience member inquired when Pavich asked for questions about his life as a 27-year-old in New York City.
“My agent sent me an email, like, ‘Hey, they’re going to pay you this much to come to Chadron.’ I didn’t even look at the email, I just saw the amount and said, ‘Yeah, no doubt.’ Then I had to find Chadron,” he said.
He confessed to being hesitant after he found out how difficult it would be to get to Chadron, and that a propeller plane would be involved, but chose to “do it for the kids.”
Other lampooned topics included IKEA furniture assembly, Netflix dates, missing a flight overseas because Pavich misread the departure time on his ticket and ended up in the wrong country with a frozen bank account, Wi-Fi addictions, and a lifelong potato allergy that garners obnoxious comments from anyone who discovers that he has it.
According to Pavich, he grew up in Queens, New York. His biography on KP Comedy’s website, kpcomedy.com, states that he is also an actor, and has been awarded the LAwebfest best-actor award. He has also been in a series called “The Neighborhood” and is on “Joking Off,” on MTV2. He has accounts on Facebook and Twitter, and also has a YouTube channel called Handsome Dancer.
