Inspiration For “Eric Cartman” Diagnosed With ALS And He Needs Your Help

 

 

If you want to read a fascinating tale, check out this one on how the character of Eric Cartman came to be. It’s a tall tale of Super Bowl parties, old friends, and Trey Parker having his “eureka” moment that would come to define his life.

In any event, South Park creator Trey Parker’s old friend, Matt Karpman, needs your help. Matt has been diagnosed with ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease, and both he and his family are raising money upwards of $300,000. As it turns out, the health insurance industry here in the United States is a real pile of shit and, as a result, nice guys like Matt have to launch GoFundMes to survive. Fortunately, we just became aware of it and that $300k is gonna be as good as met.

What are you waiting for? It’s the holidays, the spirit of giving is upon us, and if you can, donate to Matt Karpman and help him with what I am sure is going to be obscene medical costs. Let’s do this.
