The room smells like beer and garlic fries.
Laughter erupts from the audience, who watch a person on stage make weird faces and noises.
People line the bar and fill the tables. No, it's not a freak show at the circus. It's the standup comedy night at The Great Basin Brewery in Sparks. The Great Basin Brewery is home to a variety of events. Local bands, a Farmer's Market outside in the summer and standup comedy night are in the brewery, along with its home-cooked meals and friendly atmosphere.
