DISGRUNTLED GARLIN CASHES OUT CHEAP GIG

FOLKS who showed up to see comic Jeff Garlin headline a country-club comedy dinner had to curb their enthusiasm when the star walked out - because the organizers dared to pay his $800 fee by check instead of in cash! The 63-year-old Curb Your Enthusiasm star refused to take the mic at the tony Calabasas Country Club in Southern California, reportedly leaving about 40 paying and unamused - audience members in the lurch.
