Judge Forced to Choose Between His Career or His Love of Standup Comedy

Stand up comics have become an in-thing around the world today and apparently they seem to be making big bucks while making people laugh. Judges however are almost the opposite. Judges are usually known to be sombre and dull and unninteresting and stern. so what happens when a man has to choose between his legal career as a judge, or his love for standup comedy? i guess Judges themselves can be the victims of funny logic, too, although we guess this American Judge, the honorable Vince Sicari was asking for it. 

New Jersey's Supreme Court recently told Sicari he could either continue presiding over his court or keep telling lawyer jokes in nightclubs in his other job as a standup comedian. It seems that Sicari had gained a reputation as the "joking judge," a nickname that would sound suspiciously at home before the words "filmed before a live studio audience."

  

Naturally, Hon. Sicari went for the option that offered him the most respect and financial stability: comedy. Now he's a former judge who's just trying to make ends meet as a struggling comedian and actor in New Jersey ( i bet you didnt see that coming.) Anyway, i wonder if this could ever happen in Nigeria?
