After sitting through 3 other mandatory alcohol meetings for athletics…this was actually entertaining…thanks.
great show!
great show uncle bernie!
Great show bern!!!Good mix of comedy
Bernie,
Thanks for the show, man. It was funny, and you really hit home the message.
You were really good, definitely better than the usual people we get stuck with.
I thought the show was awsome! Everyone was dreading having to sit through a mandatory alcohol awareness seminar, but you were so funny! I know everyone on my team was laugh really hard! Well done! Your story was very inspirational, so thank you for sharing it with us. Congratulations on reaching your 20th sober year!
Thanks again for your amazing presentation!
Bernie, I thought it was great that you came out to Buffalo to entertain and inspire our student body. I though you were funny as hell, yet got your point across very strongly. I took your story to heart and it has made me really think twice about the things I do and how it effect others around me!! Thanks a lot!
great show tonight! the message was really strong and crystal clear. you made it entertaining and very easy to hold my attention. i loved it! thanks for coming to UB!
Thank you so Bernie much for coming to UB to share your inspirational message.
You are truly a blessed man who has been touched by God to change the lives of college students.
Take care and best wishes in your future endeavors!
Heyaaa! I must say, I had a great time :]
I’ve seen/met Opie & Anthony before and even Jin Norton, and I think you were way better.
Tell Sean he’s awesome!
:]
Thank you so much for coming tonight! I really enjoyed your performance, and I could tell that you really touched a lot of people. Although I am not a drinker myself, I am an RA in a freshmen dorm and wish that I could have brought some of my residents along tonight because I see people everyday with the same bad habits you spoke about. I wish THIS was mandatory for freshmen instead of the online modules we have to do before freshmen year; I think you would hit the messages home a lot harder than words on a website.
I really admire you for being able to change your life around and for trying to help others do the same. Congratulations on staying sober for 20 years!
Thank you!!!! :]
Great job Bernie. Thank you – you’re welcome at UB anytime!
Thank you for doing what you do! It takes a brave and confident person to stand up in front of a group of college kids and relay a powerful message such as the one you conveyed to us all tonight. You really hit home for me and so many other people tonight.
i am just doing this for the lottery
This was one of the best shows I have eva attended, Bernie!
And it was really an eye opener…I would certainly be recommending everyone to watch you speak atleast once in their lifetime…hopefully the sooner they do the better!!!
seriously before the show, i though it was going to be another boring fix our dear staff got for us. nice to see you had a comedy talk show at the first half then slowly move on to an education yet still funny lesson. i guess thats the only way college students can learn efficiently these days.
My freshman year the alcohol speaker wasn’t the best. Last year was a great improvement, especially with the way it was presented. However, you were quite different in a very good way. In the matter of about two minutes the mood when from relaxing and very funny to WOW, I can’t believe that happened to your brother. Fantastic job and I wouldn’t mind having you come back next year because your stand up is hilarious. Thanks you!
Thought you did a great job of relaying the message to everyone in the audience. Although i have not ran into any problems in the past like you have expierienced, i thought you did a great job in helping the future decision making of individuals a more thoughtful process.
tht was one hillarious show! prolly one of the best ones ive been to! i shed a tear! how do u do it??!!!
Hey Bernie,
I must say, I found your performance both heart felt and rofl laughing. I love what you do. The comedy was great, and your message was even greater. You aren’t a lecturer, your just a story teller that wants people to not make the same mistakes as you. Congratulations on 20 years of sobriety. Your little bother must be proud of you. Both of them. Keep doing what your doing and I hope you come back next year just because. Great job!!

yo bernie…thanks alot for spending time with us…
good message with a fun way of doing it
thanks again
great show
i loved the fact that you made us laugh and shared your story all with out making us feel like terrible people that we laughed or ourselves might have been in a similar type situation. It was a really good way to get the message across.
Thank Bernie, your message was funny and inspiring at the same time!
you are the man
You like making fun of Koreans often?
I’m glad you could make a joke out of it.
You don’t even have a wikipedia page.
Hey Bernie,
I love how you were trying to relate to us as athletes and students. It was refreshing to find an adult who also understands a younger generation.

Great Show!!
