Who Casey Rocket is

Casey Rocket is a stand-up comedian, now based in Chicago, whose comedy began in the pool halls of South Georgia before he moved on to the Atlanta comedy scene. After moving to Texas in 2021 he won the inaugural Austin Comedy Competition and joined the first class of Door Guys at Joe Rogan's Comedy Mothership, and in 2024 he was named a regular on the live podcast Kill Tony, performing with it at two sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden and at the Kia Forum.

Nicknamed "The Crab Man" for the crab walk he does on stage, he was one of Deadline's 15 comedians ready to break out in 2025, has played Just for Laughs in Montreal, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, SXSW, Moontower and Skankfest, and appears in the Netflix special KillTonyMania (2026).
