Dale Alvin Gribble is a fictional character in the Fox animated series King of the Hill,[2] voiced by Johnny Hardwick. A neighbor of Hank Hill, he is characterized by various eccentricities such as his paranoid belief in conspiracy theories. He often resorts to elaborate and shaky plots in lieu of physical strength, being a longtime chain smoker. He works for himself, mostly as a pest exterminator, and is a personal gun fanatic.
