Chitlin Circuit Comedians Appreciation Thread

This is a thread about comedians who were not very popular or basically unknown in mainstream, but had big success in the Chitlin Circuit. Acts like

Rudy Ray Moore (RIP)

Leroy & Skillet

Blowfly

LaWanda Page (She may have only been known as Aunt Esther on Sanford & Son, but in the circuit, she was known as the Queen Of Comedy)
