Chip McCracken


As promised, here is Deco-Man's arch nemesis, 'Chip McCracken'. I don't want to get into too much detail about him, but he's a very tragic villain. Here's the details: He grew up in Ireland and was one of 18 sons of a very Famous leprechaun, Shamus McCracken. As is leprechaun tradition, each leprechaun passes his gold down to only one son. When Shamus picked Doug, Chip's brother, Chip reacted in the same way any of us would: He moved to Western Canada, filled his pot with rocks and started throwing them at windshields. Thus began his feud with Deco-Man.

I put way too much thought into this stuff. Be sure to check out Deco Windshield Repair, to whom this character belongs.
