Like the aforementioned Foxworthy and Engvall, Whitney keeps it clean live and engages the audience. Whitney starred in a couple of critically panned film vehicles, “Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector,” “Delta Force” and “Witless Protection.” His most beloved and enduring film performance just might be as the voice of Mater, the beat-up tow truck in the Pixar animated “Cars” movies and shorts.

Three of his seven comedy albums went gold, meaning more than 500,000 copies of each album were sold. Whitney was wildly successful during the aughts. Whitney, who will perform Thursday at Northern Quest Resort & Casino, starred with Jeff Foxworthy, Ron White and Bill Engvall, on Blue Collar TV and embarked on a number of Blue Collar Comedy tours. While out on the road early in his career Whitney came up with the catchphrase, “Git-R-Done,’ which is the title of his book. Whitney, 59, took it a step further by developing a stand-up act out of it. Larry the Cable Guy, aka Dan Whitney, appropriated the accent and attitude from his college roommates in Georgia.

Northern Quest wrapped up another phase of expansion just a couple of years ago with the addition of a large retail store called Windfall, a handful of quick service dining options, an Arcade, a child care space and a dinner and movie theater concept. Northern Quest Resort & Casino is committed to responsible gaming.
