The stand-up comic posted a video of himself recently shutting down a heckler who didn\u2019t like Hofstetter taking a break from his routine to praise Jessica Mendoza, a two-time Olympic gold medalist and Stanford graduate, who last year became the first female to call a professional baseball game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cNext!\u201d the heckler shouts. At first, Hofstetter is caught off guard but then he tries to give the guy a chance to explain what he found \u201coffensive\u201d about celebrating this historic moment in sports. \u201cYou and I can talk later,\u201d the anonymous guy says, directly challenging an earlier warning from Hofstetter to not approach comedians after shows.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Once the guy refuses to explain why he\u2019s offended, Hofstetter asks him to leave, saying not only is he being a jerk but he\u2019s not at least willing to stand up for his own beliefs. Then things get weird. It turns out the heckler is at the show with his family, including his daughters. \u201cYou have daughters and I was standing up for women\u2019s rights and you were offended by that,\u201d Hofstetter says. \u201cI hope the rest of you are going to be okay later.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Unlike some heckler videos that drag on and on, this one is maybe most amazing in the way he gets shut down before he can even really get started.<\/span>\u00a0<span>The whole video is funny, inspiring and just a classic example of a comedian taking down a heckler. Like near the end, when Hofstetter addresses a common trope of someone questioning why a male comedian needs to stand up for women\u2019s equality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cAs it turns out, I actually have a genetic history of women in my family,\u201d he says. \u201cIf you want to be a real man then respect the women in your life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Want to share this on Facebook?
