The Eagle Ticket Window is wide open all week long and this time it's all about the laughter. We've already given away tickets to see Ron White and Lewis Black this year, and we wrap up 2014 with another hilarious guy, Brian Regan.

George Lopez may do a lot of things for laughs -- but this was not one of them.
