Lavell Crawford

Comments (0) By Bob Ruggiero Thursday, Jun 14 2012

Blues singer Howlin' Wolf once referred to himself as ''300 Pounds of Heavenly Joy.'' Similarly sizable is big-boned comedian (and Breaking Bad regular) Lavell Crawford. ''I used to work at McDonald's, but I got fired,'' he explains in one bit. ''People would order double cheeseburgers, and I'd say, 'We're fresh out.' Then they'd order Big Macs, and I'd say, ''We're out of them, too.' When they'd say that there were 12 behind me, I'd say, 'But they're mine.'''

More About

While he's in Houston, Crawford will no doubt sample some of the local ethnic cuisine, even if it sports a certain lack of variety. ''I love Mexican food, but it's all the same thing!'' he opines. ''A burrito is a tortilla with meat, beans and cheese. An enchilada is a tortilla with meat, beans and cheese in it. A chimichanga? A tortilla with meat, beans and cheese in it. Come on!''
