Stan Marsh is the leader of the group. He has an older sister named Shelly who always kicks his ass but his parents won't believe him. He has a dog named Sparky who is a gay homosexual in Cartman's words. He is the quarterback for the South Park Elementary football team, the South Park Cows. He has an uncle named Jimbo who loves hunting, but Stan can't shoot anything. He's in love with Wendy Testaburger, but he won't admit it. He used to throw up every time she talked to him, but he's over that now. The crazy geneticist tried to make a clone of him, but it went on a rampage through the town, so he killed it. He and Wendy were supposed to go out for Holloween as Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy, but Wendy changed her mind without telling Stan. He got an A- on his ancient cultures project because Mr. Garrison wanted to treat him well before the football game against the Middlepark Cowboys. He and Big Gay Al of Big Gay Al's Gay Animal Sanctuary became friends after Sparky ran away. His favourite line is "Omigod they killed Kenny." Somtimes he adds "You bastards", but it's usually Kyle.
