I'd say about half the theatre got up and walked out not quite halfway through. A lot of booing prior to people starting to leave.

That's a bit surprising, it was a massive success and is still considered one of the best comedy specials of all time. What set people off? The rampant homophobia?
e: "Raw" made twice as much money as Kevin Hart's stand up film "what now?", but was released 30 years earlier.
