Larry the Cable Guy's Southern Accent Isn't Real

I was tipped off about this major news a few years back because a friend of mine worked at a big sports arena where Larry the Cable Guy was performing, and he said two things: 1.) He was really nice. 2). He does NOT have a Southern accent.

I was mystified. How could Larry the Cable Guy, hero to the working man (especially in the South), not actually have that trademark accent he uses to “Git R Done”?

You gotta be sh*tting me!

The big-shot comedian was just a regular stand-up comedian before he hit it big with the Larry the Cable Guy character. Check out this old video of him doing standup when he went by the name “Dan Whitney.”
