Roy D. Mercer is a slippery-talking redneck who wears overalls and a John Deere cap. He calls people on the telephone, these people invariably set up by their coworkers or family. Mercer claims that the person broke an item or created a problem. He says that he's coming down to "pick up a check", typically for about $200, to get some satisfaction. When rebuffed, he gravely says that they'll "get an ass-whupping". An entertaining verbal argument ensues, then Brent Douglas drops the masquerade and announces the practical joke.

Mercer has a fictional wife and children who are often a topic of his prank calls. His wife's name is Sharon Gene, his son's name is Raymond, and his step-daughter's name is Lateesha. The family also has a dog named Bon Jovi but lost several other pets due to mishaps, among them Raymond's piano-playing hamster Liberace, who got "squooshed" by a 20-pound weight.

Some famous remarks from him are "I'll knock a lung loose" and "I'll whup somebody's ass." He often asks "How big 'a boy are ya?", which became the title of his first seven studio albums and the first compilation album.
