Charlie Sheen In Denver: Takes The Stage 45 Minutes Late, Fails To Impress

The Wells Fargo Theater was half empty Thursday night for Charlie Sheen's Violent Torpedo of Truth Tour, but that didn't seem to wind down his audience who witnessed an unusual combination of the actor's ramblings, painful jokes, and awkward confessions.

Sheen was reportedly 45 minutes late for the show and showed up wearing a Rockies jersey--a signature of his tour, since he wore the jerseys of each team whose state he torpedoed through.

According Westword, women even offered to sleep with him when he took Denver questions.

The actor said however that he preferred Denver much more than to say, Aspen where he was arrested in late 2009 on felony domestic violence charges from then-wife Brooke Mueller.

Despite his willingness to crack jokes at his own media humiliations while on tour, most of the Violent Torpedo of Truth reviews have been negative and tend to recycle the phrase "Sheen bombs". In Denver, a pair of women even said they wish'd they could have brought tomatoes to the show.

Westword reports:

It's not that he stumbled around or fumbled his words; it's just that he really didn't have much to say. It kind of felt like being in a room with our drunk uncle at Christmas - we wanted to leave, but we couldn't. We couldn't leave because of curiosity and because we felt we needed to give him a shot.

It was like a train wreck. Nobody want's it to happen, everyone knows it is going to happen and they don't want to see it. But they just can't look away.

My wife and I thought about going to the CT show but we couldn't bring ourselves to pay money to feed his ego. I kind of wanted to see him bomb in an accidental Andy Kaufman impersonation.

Charlie Sheen is a moronic idioit who shouldnt be going on "Tour" to talk about the most disenchanting aspects of HIS life. What about the homeless people around the country? Why not talk about ways to improve their lives instead of talking about your own screwed up life.

What a rare opportunity to see who is better at bringing the crazee with Charlie Sheen and Steve Forbes both in Denver at the same time.

Were you even at the show? Overall the crowd was very receptive and he ended the night with a standing ovation. Sounds like you took Charlie Sheen's insult to the media a little too personally.

What, are you kidding. Even the White's of Boone County West Virginia walked out of his show. They said that they rather be sober, bone dry from al-key-hol, out of drugs and locked up in prison.
