Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars Grave Robbers!!.......2006-09-17

Search for and buy "The Real Leroy Mercer is John Bean" CD. John Bean was the guy who did this first. His tapes were passed around by people for years and that's how he became so well known. This 'Roy D. Mercer' thing is a rip-off of John Bean who died in 1984 of cancer at the age of 33. 'Roy D. Mercer' is stealing John Bean's stuff. He imitates Bean's voice and steals the words and expressions he was famous for. You can patronize this theft or you can support the family of the real deal. John's stuff is better anyway.

1 out of 5 stars Roy D. is a rip off.......2005-11-07

They got this off of a guy from Knoxville who did this in the early 80's. Go and hear the real stuff. Leroy Mercer, aka John Bean, is the real deal,not these theives.

1 out of 5 stars this isn't even worth one star..........2005-07-01

Roy D. Mercer is a poor imitation of a really funny guy who used the name Leroy Mercer (see any similarities there?) for his prank calls. If you want to know the real story, do a search for Leroy Mercer aka John Bean. Unfortunately there is also another jerk imitating Johnny and he calls himself "Lee Roy Mercer". These men should be ashamed of themselves

5 out of 5 stars HYSTERICAL!.......2005-02-11

Absolutely the most hilarious thing you could ever hear. I can listen to this over and over. I am a native oklahoman currently in Tulsa, OK and I have listened to Phil and Brent for years on KMOD doing ROY D MERCER. It's a running joke around my office and we are always imitating him! I totally recommend any of his CD's to everyone. I bet $100 you won't be able to keep a straight face! KEEP ON WHOOPIN @$$ ROY D!

5 out of 5 stars If you can't laugh at Roy D.Mercer, get a new funny bone...!.......2004-10-07

Roy D. Mercer is the "down home" version of the Jerky Boys, the brainchild of Oklahoma DJs Phil and Brent. He is the radio version of getting Punk'd by Ashton Kutcher, that is if Ashton had a Southern accent. Through nearly a dozen CDs he has caught many an unsuspecting caller with a threat of an "ass-whoopin'", mainly thanks to the caller's friends/family/co-workers who set up the calls to see if they can get them (the intended victim) riled up.

"Greatest Fits" takes some of the best pranks from the first 6 volumes of the "How Big a Boy Are Ya?" series and combines them into one sweet package for the consumate Mercer fan and/or neophyte to enjoy.

Truly the best of the bunch has to be "Bad Apples" where Roy calls a grocer and asks to see if he can get a delivery of certain items due to the fact that he ate a few apples that have left him with a bad case of diarrhea (the sound effects are hilarious enough that even I was left in the floor, as Roy says during the skit, "doubled up with a gut-ache" from laughing so hard). Also great is "Dead Trees" where Roy calls a woman requesting compensation for several trees that died thanks to a herbicide advertised in a newsletter that the woman suggested. But when Roy threatens her with the customary "ass-whuppin", she turns the tables and dares HIM to bring it!

My personal favorite is "Horse Feed", where Roy calls a woman requesting payment over cancelled horse riding groups after one of the horses has a little problem (or should I say a BIG problem)after eating the horse feed from her shop, a fact the shop owner finds hilarious, laughing through the entire phone call. The clincher comes when Roy tells the woman that his wife, Sharon Jean, is "gonna kick [her]ass so hard [she'll]have to clear her throat to fart".

Whether you are a fan of the HBaBAY? series or just getting started in, you definitely need to make room for Greatest Fits into your collection...
