Same except I had a copy back in mid 90's in high school. There's a good one I can't find anywhere, he calls a woman named Ms. Laru on Minnesota St., she's very hard of hearing 😂
@@derrickallen2054 I have never heard the "Minnesota skit". I know there was a radio dj that did a bunch of copy-cat calls based on Leroy Mercer's work. I wonder if that skit was done by him? If not, I would like to find it and give a listen.
@@01sapphireGTS I'm certain it was done by John Bean, not the dj. The dj did his prank calls in the early 2000's if I'm not mistaken. The skit is he calls this old woman that's hard of hearing, he tells her she's one a free 5 lb sack of Goober nuts from Frazier's carpet store, somehow gets her neighbor's phone number as well (his name his Kern), but she can't understand hardly anything he's saying. You'd have to hear it to really appreciate it, one of his best.
@@derrickallen2054 There was a Leroy Mercer fan club website at one time. After a quick internet search, I can't find it right now. I will look tomorrow and contact the fan club to see if they know of it. I'm sure the skit is a hoot.
@@01sapphireGTS let me know if you find anything out about it. Yeah it's hilarious, I had the skit on a cassette tape back in high school but I lost the tape years ago unfortunately. Ever so often I'll Google search for it but so far no luck.
I think this is the funniest thing I’ve ever heard. I really don’t know why except that I’ve known people like this. I’ve played it for people that see no humor in it why I don’t know. I bet I’ve listened to this at least 500 times over the past 25 years ( til I wore my tape down to nuthin) thanks RU-vid
Glad to see some of John bean's stuff still going around. Back in the early 1990's there was some controversy surrounding these tapes. The Lt. Governor of Tennessee was playing it repeatedly at the state capital and while 90% of people thought it was funny, the other 10% complained about being subjected to the language and went to the local news and it ended up being a (sort-of) big deal. Just shows how people are. BTW, John Bean died of cancer not long after these were made. RIP.
I just listened to a Roy D. Mercer prank, and looking the character up on Wikipedia and found out about the Leroy Mercer character. I've been laughing nonstop at this!
I grew up county over from where this dude lives ( east Tennessee). Hilarious , that these are all real. All the businesses are real. Nothing fake here. Dude got sued and all kinda shit.
