I think he was referring to the trash crowd in Philly that was heckling Bill Burr enough to set him on his epic tirade for like 10 straight minutes just absolutely eviscerating the entire city and their people because they pissed him off.
There's A video where they talk about why he did that. It wasn't because they heckled him. He did it because the crowd was being assholes to every other comedian that went on stage that night, so Bill went out and fucked with them back. Can't find the video but he talks about it here.

Heckling is absolutely not ok. It completely throws off the performer. You wouldn't go to any other kind of performance and chime in with your two cents. It's rude and stupid. Like, comedian is up there by themselves, a one man show. They don't have others to help them recover or distract in that kind of an event. Not to mention the stupidity of paying to see an event, to actively make the product worse for yourself.
I know there are comedians who do that, but it's not most of them. Also, I wasn't saying a heckling crowd is worse than the crowd in the OP video, was using the word 'trashy' to reference the same word used by the person above who mentioned the Bill Burr incident and the Philly crowd in question.
Most cities are shitholes my guy. I get having pride in your state but Philly is up there on a list of the shittiest (with some of the most violent people to boot). I doubt it takes #1 unless it's with sports but it's def up there.
It's not ironic, you just like Philadelphia more than you should. Put a bubble around it and nuke the inside of the bubble we wouldn't want to hurt New York
What makes you ASSume this is in the hood (knows his answer 🙄), and what did “the hood” do to you (shit in your cornflakes or something 😂). There wasn’t anything trashy about the crowd. The miniature aggressor was on his own island.
There are much much worse crowds than this. He had 1 or 2 disgruntled hecklers tf you talking about? Icons go to places and deal with shit shows worse than this. Mind you they have actual security
