Smile

What makes Dave Dugan smile? “My family. Friends at Friday lunch. A bike ride on a sunny day. All these things make me smile and allow me to show off my new gold-capped tooth,” said the Indianapolis-based comedian who is famous nationwide and around the world and has appeared on Comedy Central, HBO, and VH-1. He is a Hamilton County native who graduated from Carmel High School and still lives in Carmel. He was found visiting downtown Noblesville. Locally, Dugan will perform a sold-out St. Patty’s Eve comedy show tonight at The Cat in Carmel. “I wanted to revolve it around my favorite holiday,” although he admitted every holiday is his favorite. He and his wife, Heidi, have two kids, Riley, 19, and Max, 24, who is married and has a 1-year-old, Edmund. Dugan loves being a grandpa. What else? Mornings, Dugan loves a heaping bowl of Cocoa Puffs and watching The Three Stooges.
