There’s nothing lamer than being furious with a comedian at a stand-up comedy gig, and especially if it’s because said comedian refuses to tell you who they voted for (as if that’s anyone’s business but theirs).
Fortunately, comedian Ariel Elias dealt with this absolute bell end of a heckler like an absolute pro:

Gonna take a wild guess and say the beer-thrower voted for Trump. The good news is that the club is pressing charges against the guy, which suggests it wasn’t actually the female heckler who threw the beer can at Ariel’s head but some other knob who got weirdly angry about a comedian’s political leanings.
The best part about it was that, as well as winning the verbal battle, Ariel then picked the can up and chugged it right in the heckler’s face…
Feels like this incident is going to end up being great for Ariel Elias’s career. The can missed her head, and now everyone knows her name. Massive win. And huge L for the idiot who lobbed his beer at her. Unlucky pal.
