White Trash Drunk Becomes Hero In His Own Hometown

Shelby, NC (WFN) -- Getting burned and duct-taped when you're drunk isn't a fun way to become a celebrity but, hey, it's working for a man in Shelby, North Carolina.

The man -- affectionately known as "Uncle Goddamn" -- is known for his amazing ability to withstand torture when inebriated. In fact, his only response is a drunken "Goddamn."

Uncle Goddamn's nephews have been torturing him since the mid-1980s -- long before "Jackass" -- but now he has a global cult that includes fans like Marilyn Manson.

Uncle Goddamn even has a spokesman, Brian Butler, who says fans travel thousands of miles to Shelby hoping to meet the Uncle personally.

As a result, the former town drunk of Shelby has become its most famous citizen.

Things should only get bigger. An "Uncle Goddamn" DVD is about to be released and some critics are calling it "the white trash "Citizen Kane.""
