Standup comedian Aziz Ansari, perhaps best known for his role as Tom Haverford on the NBC sitcom “Parks and Recreation," performed two sold-out shows Monday night at the Ann Arbor Comedy Showcase where a strict no-photography policy was in place. The show was hilariously edgy and high-energy as 28-year-old Ansari touched on the dating scene, racism, the institution of marriage and his idiot cousin. He drew some of the biggest laughs of the night when he shared the story of overhearing rapper 50 Cent learn for the first time in his life what a grapefruit was. Most of his jokes are too raunchy to post here, but go buy his stuff or check him out next time he's in your area. And for those wondering, yes, he cited Zingerman's as a reason for coming back to Ann Arbor.
