We have Duffman being bound and gagged, it seems that the party is truly over.
Duffman, currently known as Puffman, was the mascot and spokesman for the Duff Beer company. His real name is either Barry Duffman or Barry Huffman.
The idea of Duffman came about after H.K.Duff's grandfather repurposed a
fascist icon because he could not get the rights to Woody Woodpecker.
There are actually multiple people who play Duffman. (Others being Sid,
Joe, and Larry)
Duffman is generally known
for his overly enthusiastic speech in which he refers to himselfin the
third person, complete with dramatic pauses and ending with a suggestive
"Oh, yeah!" and pelvic thrusts. Fittingly, his theme song which plays
at every corporate-sponsored appearance is "Oh Yeah" by Swiss band
Yello. Also, Lenny calls him "the guy who creates an awareness of Duff".
Duffman is also a professional male stripper for private special events, such as Edna Krabappel's bachelorette party.
Duffman is sober because of Duff Beer's policies.
Duffman
is based on Budweiser's former mascot, Bud Man. Duffman's catchphrase
comes from the song "Oh Yeah" by Yello, which the producers say became
extremely popular after Ferris Bueller's Day Off and many
advertisers started using it. As a result, the writers felt that the
song and phrase "Oh yeah!" would be suitable for Duffman. Duffman's
thrusts were first acted out by Brad Bird. Duffman is the greatest
womanizer - or so he says. He talks almost the same pattern like Captain
Kirk from the original Star Trek.
