Harry Potter is about to get a completely unauthorized roasting!!!
By Callum Gunn
Some of Houston’s best comedians prepare to deliver some of their best one-liners and insults to the boy who lived.
Brought to you by comedians Gabe Bravo and Nick Meriwether comes, The (Completely Unauthorized) Roast of Harry Potter. Expecting a sell-out crowd of both super fans, casual fans and whomever else might decide to show up, tickets have been selling well for the show that is dedicated to making fun of our boy wizard.
Local comics are expected to join Bravo on stage with Meriwether acting as the official roastmaster. But it won’t all focused on Harry. Ron and Hermione are expected to be in the roasting firing line as well but who else might be roasted is staying a closely guarded secret.

Once in a lifetime type experience
Anyone attending the roasting can expect a once in a lifetime type experience. One of the big drawbacks with comedians is that if you follow them regularly or attend several of their shows you tend to encounter the same jokes. With the Harry Potter roasting, unless the comedians decided to run one of their own, all of the jokes will be new and fresh.
Another major advantage and difference from any other regular roasting event is that this is based on fictional characters. So as Harry and everyone else is unable to get upset there is a “don’t hold back” type attitude.
If it is something you fancy seeing you can get tickets for the event via their website here, prices range between $5 and $10.
Due to popular demand, we're adding a second show to the Roast of Harry Potter on 3/5! The first show is officially SOLD OUT!
