Lesh & English (2005) conduct a study about the connection between the someone's success and his/her mathematical thinking ability. Shmakov & Hannula (2010) study about the creative thinking of students based on the fun mathematics teaching process, Young (2013) uses improv comedy to help the learning activities in class, and the finding of Nicewonder (2001) shows that introducing comedy during mathematics class in any given level could help students understanding the material and also could make mathematics become more fun. Basically, comedy uses the pattern of setuppunchline formula which offers expectation and gives unexpected surprise. In this matter, the thinking process known as assimilationaccomodation creates the condition equilibrium and disequilibrium. Furthermore, to analyze the mathematical thinking happens, the researcher conducts a research on Stand Up Comedy Indonesia. In short, mathematical thinking used by the comedians is an implicational logical pattern. A condition of "if" is as the setup while a condition of "then" is as the punchline. Different techniques of punchline used by different comedians are based on their stage persona which covers language, background, and the sensitivity of comedy.
