Ticket sales for Chris Rock’s upcoming Ego Death World Tour are sharply benefiting from the comedian’s Sunday night Oscar dustup with actor Will Smith.

According to ticket resale site TickPick, demand for Rock’s show quickly surged after Smith marched across the Oscars stage Sunday night to slap him.

“We sold more tickets to see Chris Rock overnight than we did in the past month combined,” TickPick said in a tweet Monday morning.

Rock’s “Ego Death World Tour” kicks off Wednesday in Boston. The comedian will perform at the Old National Centre in Indianapolis on June 14th.

Will Smith publicly apologized to Rock in an Instagram post on Monday morning.
