The Valparaiso University baseball program will be hosting Bobby Collins “On the Inside”, an evening of Las Vegas comedy, on April 21 at 7:30 p.m. in the Athletics-Recreation Center.

Collins is an award-winning comedian, who has starred in his own Showtime Special, was the host of VH1's “Stand Up Spotlight,” and most recently has been seen on the “Joy Behar Show.”  He has toured with Cher, Julio Iglesias, Dolly Parton and Tony Bennett, among others.  In addition, he’s released three DVDs and six CDs, with his second CD, “Out of Bounds,” earning him a Grammy nomination.  His latest CD, “I'm on the Boat, Woman and Children First,” is on its way to becoming a number one best seller.
