Meet Brian:
Brian Patafie, known by his fans as "Comedy’s Original Enter-Trainer", is quickly becoming a rising star in North American comedy. Before launching his stand-up career, Brian spent 44 years in the hockey world, working as an athletic trainer in both the NHL, as well as Germany’s Deutsche Eishockey Liga. He’s authored two books, Ice It Down and No Days Off, and spent his off-seasons emceeing sports events with a flair for humor. His transition to comedy began in 2021 when he embarked on his No Days Off Tour, honing his skills with writers to craft his unique comedic voice. Since then, Brian’s comedy career has taken off, with sold-out shows across the continent and the UK, including multiple high-profile appearances in Las Vegas, Nevada. His Funny As Puck tour, currently in progress, brings audiences a mix of hilarious one-liners and a deeply personal, comedic look at his experiences with family, hockey and life.
