Straight to the point on this one: Ron White is an alum of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, which also included Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy, and he’s known by the nickname “Tater Salad.”

If you’re not already familiar with White’s work, but both of those should clue you in to where he’s coming from.

Born in Frisco, Texas, White is known for his downhome observational comedy and often appears onstage with a cigar and a glass of scotch.

He’s appeared on the TV show Reno 911! and in the movie Horrible Bosses. His most recent comedy special is If You Quit Listening, I’ll Shut Up.

He’s also written a best-selling book, I Had the Right to Remain Silent But I Didn’t Have the Ability, a title that probably applies to most of us.

$47.75, 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. Saturday, February 26, Majestic Theatre, 224 E. Houston St., (210) 226-3333, majesticempire.com.
