Big Gay Al is a fictional character on the show South Park, voiced by Matt Stone.
Big Gay Al is a stereotypical gay man. He runs an animal farm for gay animals who have been rejected by homophobic pet owners. In "Big Gay Al's Big Gay Boat Ride," he temporarily adopted Sparky, Stan's gay dog, who had run away from home. Later on in the episode, his large shelter vanished, but the various animals remained, and were adopted by their former owners who had missed them greatly. His catchphrase is "I'm super! Thanks for asking!"
He also appeared in South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, entertaining U.S. troops. He sang the song "I'm Super" while the kids tried to free Terrance and Phillip.
In "Cripple Fight," he was the leader of a scouting troop which included Stan, Cartman, Kenny, Butters, Jimmy and Timmy; however, their parents were uneasy about a gay scout leader, and (parodying the Boy Scout controversy) the club fired him and replaced him by "Mr. Slippyfists," a macho man who turned out to be a child molester, taking nude photographs of all the children. The boys rallied to get him back, and Gloria Allred and others forced the Scouts to reaccept him; however, he wound up rejecting this, saying he knew the Scout leaders were still good men, and since the scouts are a private club, they should have the right to exclude people if they chose to, just as he had the right to express himself as a gay man. He did say he would continue to try to convince them to let him in, but was against forcing them to do so.
Big Gay Al eventually started up a relationship with Mr. Slave, the former boyfriend of Mr. Garrison; the two broke up when the latter got a sex change, and Al and Slave were soon engaged. Mrs. Garrison (formerly Mr.) swore she would stop gay marriage in "Follow That Egg!," because she wanted Mr. Slave back; when she failed, Al and Mr. Slave wed.
