"It was a great and wonderful show"

It was a great and wonderful show with lots of good clean humor. It was very refreshing to be able to attend a comedy hour with nothing but laughter and inspiration throughout the show. It was god and country all the way. It made you well up inside at times.

"The show was awesome."

The show was awesome. The jokes and yakov's stories will have you rolling with laughter. The dancing and the skits that are performed are great as well. Yakov proved his appreciation to everyone when he stayed and signed autographs for all who wanted one.

I loved everything about yakov’s show! During these times to hear someone from another country be proud to be american citizen, makes me feel good. I’m glad he shared his story, and put a twist on it that nobody else could do. My opinion

"We had a good time."

We had a good time. Everybody we ran into was very friendly and fun. Shows were very good, our trip to top of the rock was special, sights and sounds show was worth the trip all by itself. Yakov was fun - part comedian/part philosopher. Motel was a decent cost and breakfast was first rate. Enjoyed dogwood canyon.
