Fans of Pete Davidson still have a chance to see the comedian, actor and "Saturday Night Live" alum in action at the Southern Theatre on Oct. 17, but they'd better act quickly because tickets for his 9:30 p.m. show are selling like the proverbial hot cakes.

Davidson added a second show after his 7 p.m. stand-up performance sold out within an hour — and the later show is expected to do the same, according to Todd Flenner, Live Nation's manager of regional marketing in the Great Lakes region.
