Had to recover something of the accents from his childhood in Tennessee
to play Deputy Travis Junior in Reno 911! (2003). Ben has lived in New York and
Los Angeles for so long that he no longer has a Southern accent in real
life.
In high school, he had a green Mohawk. He drove a Datsun B210 that was
covered in spray paint because if someone felt inspired, they could
write something on the car.
