Damon Wayans experienced LA’s Laugh Factory’s new ban on the N-word, according to TMZ.

After the Michael Richards incident on November 17, the club decided to ban use of the word and fine comedians $20 for every offense. Wayans took the stage Sunday during a showcase of African-American comedians called “Chocolate Sundaes.” Wayans opened his routine with the line, “Give yourselves a big round of applause for coming down and supporting ‘N***** Night.’” According to the L.A. Times, Wayans used the word 15 more times during his 20-minute appearance.

That’s a $320 contribution to the Laugh Factory’s swear jar. Wayans’ rep had no further comment other than to confirm the fine and the temporary ban.

Andy Dick drew fire earlier this week for using the n-word during an appearance at the Improv.

Seriously, the Kramer incident is probably going to give black comedians materal for light-years. Hell, it’s giving skeevy, bisexual crackhead comedians (*cough*Andy Dick*cough*) material – so why shouldn’t Damon benefit as well? Homey the Clown should smash that swear jar over Michael Richards’ head.
