From Baseball to Stand-Up: Embracing Challenges

Who knew he was funny?!? For many of us in this community, Pete Cestaro is "Coach Pete"-- the guy who has been teaching our kids to love the game of baseball, as well as getting good at it. Many others know him as a guy we play golf with, surf with , have coffee with or just generally enjoy his company. And who knew he was funny? Well, all of us, and especially the kids he's taught baseball to, and even more so, their parents. But we didn't realize he was REALLY funny until he started showing up in comedy clubs all up and down the west coast on our Instagrams. And now he's back here on the east coast, bringing not only his clever brand of humor to NYC clubs, but also to a couple of venues on the east end. One in particular is "Comedy at Pox", Pete's own production. Once a month, at Fairway Restaurant at Poxybogue (YES, THE DINER AT THE GOLF COURSE!!) Pete brings a few of his favorite headliners from the city to bust up a small crowd in the diner. They've all been sold out. And as someone who'd been there multiple times, let me tell you: IT'S FUNNY!!
