Hannibal Buress stand-up set is interrupted at Loyola after his sex-abuse joke

The weekend was not entirely sweet at Gentile Arena for Loyola University Chicago students. Hannibal Buress’ Saturday night show at Loyola, a Jesuit Catholic university, was almost cut short after the 35-year-old Chicago comedian made a joke referencing sexual abuse of children in the Catholic Church, attendees confirmed to the Tribune. Buress was to perform a standup set as part of Loyola’s annual Colossus show, put on by Loyola’s student-run Department of Programming in the Gentile Arena, home of the school’s basketball teams. He made it a few minutes before his microphone shut off.
