Hey, BU-DDY. We have The Weasel coming to Puyallup. Get your fresh Nugs and Melons ready, and start wheezin’ the Juice as we welcome Pauly Shore to the 2025 Washington State Summer Con lineup from June 20th through the 22nd. He will be with us all weekend and also have a special Friday and Saturday sets at the Tacoma Comedy Club.
Shore began as a stand-up comedian at the age of 17. Shore was mentored by Sam Kinison and opened several of his sets.
Shore’s big break came as an on-air MTV VJ, a position he held from 1989 to 1994. At the height of his MTV fame, Shore had his own show, Totally Pauly, serving as a host on MTV’s annual Spring Break parties.
In 1992, Shore starred in Encino Man. The film’s success propelled Shore to star in additional films including Son in Law (1993), In the Army Now (1994), Jury Duty (1995), and Bio-Dome (1996). Shore provided the voice of Bobby Zimuruski in A Goofy Movie (1995) and its direct-to-video sequel, An Extremely Goofy Movie (2000).
In 1997, Shore starred in the eponymous TV show Pauly, which was cancelled after five episodes aired. He made a cameo appearance in the American rock band Limp Bizkit music video N 2 Gether Now as a pizza deliveryman and a briefer appearance in Break Stuff.
In 2003, Shore produced, wrote, directed and starred in Pauly Shore Is Dead, a semi-autobiographical mockumentary, and in 2005, starred in the short-lived reality television series Minding the Store. In 2010, Shore starred in Adopted, which sees him traveling to Africa to adopt a child.
In March 2018, Shore appeared as himself in episode 10 of the TV series Alone Together.
Meet Pauly Shore all weekend at the Washington State Summer Con. He will be with us signing autographs, meeting fans, taking photos, and taking group photos, and speaking on a can’t-miss panel.
