As per the audio, Cocci mentioned, "I did hear him say, 'I don't feel good, but I'm ready to do the show. This is what I do this for.' He kinda seemed like he was talking himself up." Cocci continued, "He stated himself that... it was taking his body a long time to get over [COVID]."
"He said that his hearing had been off and that was the case that night. He was asking the sound guys to turn everything up.....He said he had been sick the night before, he said he had a sore throat, that he was happy he had lozenges for the stage." Cocci added
Reportedly, Cocci was required to provide Saget with all the beverages and food that the latter demanded. She claimed that the comedian's list of food items was cut to half on the night of his performance. "All there was on there was drinks. He wanted Redbull, Diet Coke and regular Coke and that was it," she stated.
In a police interview about Saget's stand-up routine, she quipped, "He seemed okay. He really did and it was very surprising the next day... He came out very energetic, and in the half-an-hour, I saw him, he was very much entertaining the crowd."
