About

I am Billy Mays III, only son of the late pitchman Billy Mays. This blog is a place for me to post all of the interesting things I've found that respectfully pay tribute to my father's memory or otherwise reference his public persona.
Enjoy.

Yes, I'm going to use South Park and tasteful in the same sentence.

I'm sure by now a lot of you have seen the recent season premiere of South Park entitled "Dead Celebrities."

I had heard about the episode almost a day prior to it airing but I didn't hear any details. 
Then, about 2 hours before the premiere I heard that it was definitely going to heavily involve Billy Mays and Michael Jackson.

As a long-time South Park fan, I knew that this could really go either way. 
So I decided not to tell anyone about the episode in fear that Trey Parker and Matt Stone were going to completely disrespect my dad.

Well, that guy is my dad.

He passed away in his sleep on June 28th, 2009.

Technically, he was Billy Mays Jr.  So there.
