Of course, he is one of the Great Rednecks of Our Time.

I've been wondering for a while whether Larry is a real redneck or just playing one. Having grown up in the south surrounded by rednecks and listening very closely to Larry speak, I've come to the conclusion that he's not a real redneck, but is in fact a pretty good actor. Damned entertaining, though. So are the rest of the Blue Collar tour....

He does have sort of a Hollywood Redneck accent, but he comes over like a lot of people I know.

I believe that Larry is from somewhere in the greater Baltimore area. He was once a regular call-in guest for the Kirk, Mark and Lopez show. The station is WIYY and the show was on from ~5:00 till ~9:00 AM

Dan Whitney lived in Nebraska till 16 and then moved to Palm Beach Florida where he still resides.

Affected accent.

If you look at the credits for Larry the Cable Guy's live show, he gives thanks to God, John Wayne, and Ronald Reagan. I don't think he's as much a hick as he pretends, but he is fairly conservative.
