Who Needs Sleep? Fans Stayed Up All Night Waiting For Dave Chappelle's Netflix Special

The special dropped Tuesday and fans didn't get a wink of sleep while waiting.
Who Needs Sleep? Fans Stayed Up All Night Waiting For Dave Chappelle’s Netflix Special

[brightcove:3661889767001 default] If you’re like us, you probably stayed up all night Monday into the wee hours of Tuesday waiting for Dave Chappelle’s Netflix special to drop. Well, you’re not alone. The special dropped at midnight on the west coast, meaning that east coast fans had to wait until 3a.m. to watch the special as soon as it premiered. And, while we just couldn’t muster the strength to stay awake that long, there were a brave few who made it past midnight and kept their eye on Netflix.
