Room 861 at Goodnights: Ben Palmer

Ben first started writing humor online via a MySpace blog when he was 19.

At 21, he performed his first stand-up comedy set at Funny Stop Comedy Club in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. He continued to do stand-up comedy and became a regular at the best comedy clubs and independent shows in Atlanta, Georgia. It was in Atlanta where he fused his two passions of humor writing and stand-up comedy into a live show.

The show features his trolling of hateful trolls on corporate Facebook pages, posing as a city government to air sarcastic gripes about bureaucracy, making up fake cases to get on court TV, and pretending to be a journalist to get reactions from billionaire CEO's and unethical multilevel marketing companies.

It was featured at Comedy Central Stage in Los Angeles and was at San Francisco Sketchfest for three consecutive years. His work has gone viral countless times and has been picked up by Snopes, USA Today, Buzzfeed, Yahoo, and NPR. His videos collectively have over 100 million views.


We are an 18+ venue.


Instead of a drink minimum, we have a two-item per person minimum in the Showroom, which can be fulfilled with any food or drink items from the menu.

Please Note: Food and drinks purchased in the bar and lounge do not count towards the two-item minimum.


  • General Admission seating is assigned on a first-come, first-sat basis as you enter the showroom. The earlier you arrive, the better your seats will be.

  • Reserved seats are assigned for you by management on the night of the show. They are the best seats available for your party size at the time they are assigned.

Please Note: We do not take seating requests and cannot guarantee seats in a specific location.


  • While we cannot guarantee seats together, General admission groups should arrive at least 45 minutes before showtime and enter the showroom as a group for the best chance of being seated together.
