Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Johnny Hardwick

Johnny Hardwick is a real life native of Austin, Texas, and works as a stand-up comedian when he is not busy with 'King of the Hill'. Did you know that the role of Dale was originally offered to Daniel Stern, but contract negotiations caused the deal to fall through. Thank goodness Johnny got the job!

2. Despite his seething distrust for just about everyone else in the world, Dale Gribble is actually married! What is the name of Dale's beautiful wife?

Answer: Nancy

Nancy Gribble is a far more attractive person than Dale, physically, but perhaps she considers him beautiful on the inside. Unfortunately for Dale, Nancy has carried on an affair with John Redcorn behind Dale's back. However, she eventually renounced her behavior and became faithful to her unwitting husband.

3. Not only is Dale married, but he is also the proud father (or so he believes) of a teenaged son. What is the name of this son, the spitting image of his father?

Answer: Joseph

Indeed, Joseph is the spitting image of his father, his true father John Redcorn, that is. Joseph was conceived while Nancy was having her affair with John Redcorn, unbeknownst to the clueless Dale. Dale eventually comes to realize that Joseph looks different from him, but he deduces in one episode that this is because Joseph's father is really an alien.

4. Obviously not willing to work for anyone else due to his paranoia, Dale has opened up his own lucrative business. What job does Dale proudly do for a living?

Answer: Exterminator

Dale's business is called Dale's Dead-Bug, and his mode of transportation is his white Dodge Caravan, aka the 'Bugabago'. On the roof of his Bugabago is a large, ugly queen ant.

5. Being very protective of his identity, Dale has an alter-ego that he often uses in various situations. What is Dale's other name that springs up frequently on the show?

Answer: Rusty Shackleford

Dale uses the name Rusty Shackleford in almost any situation where he has to provide his 'real name' to someone, even if they are just delivering pizza. He apparently uses the name illegally as well. In one episode, for instance, he is seen picking up an unemployment check under his alter ego's name.

6. Being an addicted chain smoker, Dale is constantly seen with a cigarette in his mouth. His brand of choice is named for a Canadian province, but which one?

Answer: Manitoba

Manitoba brand cigarettes are the only ones for Dale. Though he seems very loyal to the brand, this does not stop him from attempting a major lawsuit against the tobacco producer. Dale has also won quite a number of prizes by collecting tobacco bucks from Manitoba.

7. Like his friends, Dale is a lover of cold beer. But he also has a strong fondness for what soft drink, unrefrigerated, of course?

Answer: Mountain Dew

With his friends in the back alley, Dale is a daily drinker of Alamo brand beer. In his home, however, he enjoys a nice delicious swig of warm Mountain Dew. During the Y2K scare, Dale stocked up on barrels of Mountain Dew.

8. Underneath the hat that Dale almost constantly wears, he has a full head of hair.

Answer: False

In fact, Dale is bald on top. His appearance is said to have been modelled after several individuals, including William S. Burroughs, Hunter S. Thompson and Mike Judge himself!

9. Believe it or not, Dale actually has a family that still visits him on occasion. What is the unusual name of Dale's loving father?

Answer: Bug

Dale's father Bug Gribble, who was estranged from Dale for a period of time, but in one episode he appears to reunite the bond between himself and his son. Dale learns that his father is gay, but he fully accepts this.

10. What word does Dale often shout when he gets really excited?

Answer: Wingo!

Not only does Dale commonly shout 'wingo!', he also likes to say something akin to 'shashasha' when he finds himself to be terribly clever. What a strange but loveable character!
