Named the National Indian Gaming Association’s (NIGA) Entertainers of the Year for 2010, Pow Wow Comedy Jam delivers all out laughs Indian style.

Pow Wow Comedy Jam features Marc Yaffee (Aztec/Navajo), Howie Miller (Cree) and Vaughn Eaglebear (Colville/Lakota).

Marc Yaffee was adopted at birth and has been confused ever since.

“I’m a Mexican Irish Navajo, Mexi-jo,” he explains. “My ancestors exploited my own ancestors. I feel guilty and oppressed.”

“A lady asked me after a show, is it true you Navajos in your travels, you’re guided by outer voices? I’m like, Yeah, it’s called an On-star Navigation System.”

Vaughn Eaglebear is nicknamed the Frybread Assassin and scores a comedy bulls eye with his original brand of one-liner comedy.

“The Cleveland Indians are going to change their name,” he notes. “They don’t want to be known as a team that perpetuates racial stereotypes. From now on they’re just going to be called the Indians.”

Howie Miller is recognized as one of Canada’s top comedians. Hailing from the Cree Nation, Howie has performed at the top Canadian comedy festivals, including the Winnipeg Comedy Festival, the Halifax Comedy Festival, and the prestigious Montreal Just For Laughs Festival.
