As you may recall, comedian Bill Bellamy was the host of the Stand Up For Family Annual event (presented by American Family Insurance) that has taken place the last two years, usually taped in Atlanta. This year it looks like the line up is just as spectacular as in the past, as the event has added comedians Tony Rock, Dean Edwards, Gary Owen, and Felipe Esparza (winner of NBC’s Last Comic Standing).
