Milwaukee got more than laughs from Dave Chappelle's comedy show Tuesday night.

Chappelle announced that he was donating all ticket proceeds to the families who have been directly affected by the mass shooting at Molson Coors during the 7 p.m. show at The Pabst Theater, according to WTMJ Radio.

This came nearly two weeks after the shooting that took the lives of five individuals.

Audience members took to Twitter to show their gratitude for Chappelle's generous donation.

Chappelle has two more shows at the Pabst Wednesday night at 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. There is only one ticket left for the 7 p.m. show as of Wednesday morning. The 10 p.m. show is sold out.
