Funny Stop Comedy Club Welcomes Comedian Hunter Roberts!
Hunter Roberts is a stand-up gentleman, most recently known as "this guy named Hunter" who was involved in the Twitter breakup/love triangle with Long John Silver's and Wendy's. He's from a wonderfully magical town full of cows and butter. Determined to break through the glass ceiling, hell-bent on shaping him into a ranch hand (much like Jake Gyllenhaal's character in the gay cowboy movie), Hunter has become an up-and-coming (it's getting closer) comedian in the Bible Belt known for his highly energetic rants centered around his upbringing in the 90s.
Hunter enjoys teaching dogs pointless children's games, holding unlit cigarettes, and contributing to GonzoGeek.com. He was recently a finalist in the 2013 Rocky Top Comedy Contest and a participant in the Scruffy City Comedy Festival. He's also shared the stage with late-night talk show mainstays like Shane Mauss, Dave Stone, and Nate Bargatze and been an official after-party act for Mumford & Sons' 2012 Gentleman of the Road Stopover Tour in Bristol, TN.
Funny Stop Comedy Club welcomes back Bill Stone!
Comic Bill Stone is a hilariously funny stand-up comedian and entertainer. He is also a celebrated graphic designer and co-founder of BS Pro Design, creating digital designs and promotions for artists & venues from coast to coast. His laugh-out-loud comedy is something to be seen! He is a rapidly growing comedic phenom from Akron, Ohio, following in the path of great talent such as Lebron James and Devo. After only starting comedy at the ripe young age of 39, he quickly became a staple at The Funny Stop Comedy Club in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, where he performs as a regular emcee as well as an occasional feature. He now travels across the United States, featuring at clubs and venues nationwide.
His comedy style is an upbeat take on self-deprecation, situational comedy with a splash of topical humor.

Bob Jay returns to Funny Stop!
Not sure if you remember Bob? Check out this gem from the early days of YouTube… recorded at the Funny Stop back in 2012.
Bob Jay is a stand-up comedian and voice-over artist who has made a name for himself imitating others: cartoon characters, movie stars, famous musicians, and sports figures. Jay is a seasoned veteran of the comedy circuit, touring live as "The Man With Voices in His Head", as well as spending time on the small screen on Comedy Central.
It was ultimately a dare that produced Jay's eventual career path. Goaded by his friends, he took to the stage on the day of his high school graduation, and the rest was history. Gigs as a DJ and stand-up gradually transitioned into impression-heavy sets where Jay employed his talents for mimicry to great effect… eventually becoming the "Man of 999 Voices".
Over the years, Bob has entertained audiences across the country with lightning-fast impressions, spot-on vocal accuracy, and a knack for weaving those voices into hilarious, unexpected scenarios. One moment, you might hear Arnold Schwarzenegger giving dating advice, the next it’s Kermit the Frog singing a classic rock ballad. His act is unpredictable, quick-paced, and guaranteed to keep you guessing (and laughing) from start to finish.
Why you can’t miss this show:
Bob’s talent for switching between characters mid-sentence is unlike anything you’ve seen before.
It’s not just impressions — it’s full-on comedic storytelling wrapped in celebrity voices.
Every show is different, with plenty of crowd interaction and improv.
Whether you’re a longtime fan or you’ve never experienced the comedic whirlwind of Bob Jay live, this is your chance to see why he’s been a fan favorite at the Funny Stop for years.
Show Dates: August 16th and 17th, 2025
Location: Funny Stop Comedy Club – Cuyahoga Falls, OH
