The Corn Dog Guy is an inhabitant of the Outernet who sells corn dogs on the streets in his mobile booth. He can also be seen walking with a child who is most likely his son.
Appearance[]
The Corn Dog Guy is a maroon artificial stick figure in the same style as the Fighting Stick Figures.
Personality[]
The Corn Dog Guy is characterized by his incredible head for business, as he was not only able to remain calm during disastrous situations but could even turn said situations into business opportunities. Apparently, the one thing that can upset him is his customers ignoring him.
History[]
Corn Dog Guy came to life in the Outernet on March 15th, 2007 after he was uploaded to Newgrounds. He was created alongside his corn dog cart.
During the events of Animator vs. Animation 8, the Corn Dog Guy is selling corn dogs on the street when The Dark Lord's red-and-black beam suddenly shoots into the sky behind him. Stick figures rush to watch the spectacle and the Corn Dog Guy takes advantage of the influx of customers to increase the price of his corn dogs from $3 to $4. As the battle between The Dark Lord and the awakened The Second Coming commences, the other stick figures begin to panic, but the Corn Dog Guy remains calm and continues selling corn dogs. Finally, The Second Coming blasts The Dark Lord away with his lasers, causing an earthquake in the city and sending the stick figures scattering in panic. Seeing his customers fleeing, the Corn Dog Guy rapidly makes more corn dogs and commences waving them about to try to recapture their attention.
Five years later, during the events of Animator vs. Animation 9, the Corn Dog Guy is selling corn dogs (each costs $5) when The Chosen One blasts past his booth, pursued by the Mercenaries. The Corn Dog Guy is caught in the crossfire and a stray glitch shot from the Mercs' glitch cannons hits his booth, causing the entire booth (minus the sign) to become pixelated. He picks up a corn dog and sees it has been pixelated as well. Deciding to adapt and innovate, he switches to selling "Pixel Corn Dogs" for double the price.
