On the cozy Leidseplein I found Boom Chicago. It’s a comedy club which is known for its improvisation-sessions. I figured it would be a cool spot to check out and man was I right. The best improvisation sketches I have seen so far! The concept is pretty cool. You can go to the club and have dinner and everything while enjoying some class-A comedy sketches. The food is good and the comedy shows are hilarious. Also the improvisations they did while displaying moments from the World Cup were the funniest thing ever. A few comedians pretended to be sports anchors and gave their own interpretations of what the players and the referees were thinking. Of course the Zidane-head butt was the highlight of the evening! The comments were awesome and as original as it gets. If you have the chance to visit this place, I highly recommend it, coz you’re guaranteed to have a blast! Besides that, the food menu is a good deal (student thinking, hehe).
