Big Gay Al

Big Gay Al is a recurring side-character of the show South Park, created by Matt Stone and Trey Parker. Big Gay Al is Matt and Trey's quintessential take on homosexuals and like all such takes is painted as overblown and stereotypical. Big Gay Al first appeared in the episode "Big Gay Al's Big Gay Boat Ride" where he attempts to moderate Stan's negative view of his dog being gay. Big Gay Al has appeared in several other episodes usually to either as a comic relief or to stand up against homosexual discrimination. He has since been married to Mr. Garrison's former boyfriend Mr. Slave.
