    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE OCTOBER 8, 2008 BOULEVARD CASINO PRESENTS JOE ROGAN STAR OF “FEAR FACTOR” & UFC COLOUR COMMENTATOR LIVE AT THE RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 7 Joe Rogan is perhaps best known as the host of NBC’s hugely successful reality show, “Fear Factor” for six seasons. In addition, he played the role of “Joe Garrelli,” the resident electrician on the hit sitcom, “NewsRadio” which aired on NBC from 1995 to 1999. And since 2002, he has provided colour commentary for the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) on Pay Per VIew and Spike Television and also hosts the syndicated show, “UFC Wired.” Rogan’s passion for MMA began with martial arts practice at the age of 13. Within two years, the Boston native earned a black belt and soon became the Massachusetts full contact Tae Kwon Do champion for four consecutive years. By the age of 19, he won the US Open Tae Kwon Do Championship and as lightweight champion, he went on to beat both the middle and heavyweight title-holders to obtain the Grand Championship. Rogan’s other true love is stand-up comedy. As a stand-up comic for nearly twenty years, Joe Rogan has honed an inquisitive and intense comedic style. He exudes a mad joy for life in all its insanity and revels in the art of stand-up comedy to explore the world with raw honesty. This has made him a national headliner and a favourite performer at the prestigious Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal as well as a frequent guest on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” and “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” In 2000, he released his first comedy album, I’m Gonna Be Dead Someday on Warner Bros.
