On January 8, 1994, “Two Sexiest Fat Men Alive,” Rick Burgess & Bill “Bubba” Bussey, began an on-air partnership that today is celebrating its 20th anniversary. The Rick & Bubba show, which is produced in a Birmingham, Ala. studio, is now available on 60+ radio affiliates and 50+ television affiliates around the country.

In celebration of their two decades on air, the current Rick & Bubba team, past/present show interns, and related show contributors announced today that they will be performing live during at least 5 special one-night only events in concert halls/theaters in select cities beginning in May.

“Each ’20th Anniversary Tour’ event will include hilarious, unforgettable Rick & Bubba moments, show favorites such as Good ‘ol Boys Theater, Willie & Wanda, The Giant Game of Rick & Bubba Knowledge, The Wacky World, Fact or Crap, and more,” Syndicated Solutions, the company that syndicates Rick & Bubba’s show, said in a press release. “There will be prizes, video tributes reliving the past 20 years, musical performances, special Q&A sessions and more.”

Each event will also be filmed with the promise of a documentary to come later in 2014.

“[W]hat’s funny is most ‘experts’ said The Rick & Bubba Show wouldn’t be on the air for 20 days and here we are, 20 years,” Rick Burgess said. “I’m not sure what that says about the ‘experts’ or our audience.”

“We are so grateful for all that’s happened from the show these past 20 years,” Bill “Bubba” Bussey added. “We’re most thankful for our audience, our affiliates and our sponsors because none of it would be possible without their incredible support.”
