Same people in the audience

First of all, I think this is the best HBO special, Chris ever made...Its smart, funny and hilarious. Its really one of the best comedy shows Ive ever watched...However, not sure if anyone else felt the same way...it doesnt seem as funny at the first time...but it gets funnier and funnier with every screening. I loved it...
Now back to the topic...did anyone thinks that some of the black people in the audience are the same from never scared and bigger and blacker? I dont know...maybe its just me, but some of the folks in the audience, especially those giving out huge laughs and claps, seem very familiar.
Any thoughts? Thanks.

I know what you're saying, but I was thinking more like...maybe those people are hired professionals, by HBO :) I mean, there were moments when most people were just smiling, while those on the close ups were cracking up. For entertainment/showbizz purposes, I dont think it would be too far fetched to have something like that..but then again...I might be a little paranoid. lol

It might be people that HBO rented, it would not surprised me, I felt a lot of time that they laugh more then the joke required.

BUT rockstars have fans that travel with them and see hundreds of their shows, I'm sure someone as big as chris rock has one or two fans that follows him around, and If I was working as a camera man and found one guy in the audience laughing like crazy, I would probably shot him most of the time.
