Yielding to the desire of his parents, Alexander entered the Faculty of International Relations of Voronezh State University. But the desire to do stand-up was stronger than the desire to get a diploma. Having quarreled with his family, Sasha dropped out of university and set off with friends on a free float on humorous waves. I picked up the topics myself, wrote jokes.

The introduction to the Stand Up genre happened when it was necessary to prepare a story about a hobby for an English lesson. Since Dolgopolov was not particularly keen on anything, he decided to search the Internet for the meaning of the word "stand-up", which was flaunted by the residents of his favorite Comedy Club. And I was amazed at how interesting this comedy direction turned out to be. The young man reviewed the performances of George Carlin, Rory Scovel, Stuart Lee and decided that he should perform himself.

The Voronezh family named the boy Alexander, who was born in the fall of 1994. From an early age, the child surprised his parents with his antics. For example, when he saw Maxim Galkin on the TV screen, Sasha memorized the parodist's monologues, and then showed them to his family. The grandmother of her beloved grandson called it nothing else than "the new Galkin is growing." But if in his childhood Sasha liked such comparisons, then when, as a schoolboy, he got to know stand-up better, they began to frighten him
