appearance in 2011, Chappelle has not done any interviews or appeared on any podcasts or talk shows, according to an August article in The New York Times.

The comedian also does not have a website and stopped using Twitter after sending only 11 tweets.

ISU student Tyler Glover, senior in management, said he and a friend bought tickets as soon as they went on sale Monday.

“[Chappelle’s show] was hilarious, and I watched all his stand up on Netflix,” Glover said.

Tickets for the show are $55 and are available at the north entrance of Stephens Auditorium at the box office or through Ticketmaster.

Tickets will be on sale until 4 p.m. Friday.
