Barstool Sports president Dave Portnoy has made many media appearances over the years. But he recently broke into the world of cartoons.
Portnoy made an appearance on a recent episode of the Fox adult cartoon show ‘Family Guy’, according to the account ‘This Day in Barstool Sports’.
In the screenshot of the scene, it appears that Portnoy is in front of the Griffin household with a camera man as he tries some pizza made by main characters Stewie and Chris.
It’s a play on Portnoy’s popular pizza review series, where the Massachusetts native goes around to different pie shops and gives his thoughts.
However, it was made clear that while the cartoon was of Portnoy, the voice behind it was not the man himself.
Recently, Portnoy has been enjoying March Madness as his alma mater has been dominating their competition.

The Michigan Wolverines are onto the Sweet 16 after knocking off Texas A&M on Saturday
First, the five-seed Michigan were able to hold off a late challenge from 12-seeded UC San Diego.
Then, on Saturday afternoon, the Wolverines managed a very comfortable victory over four-seed Texas A&M.
Ever the gambler, Portnoy decided to put his money on the line that Michigan’s luck would continue – and dropped $10,000 on them to win the national championship.
Considering that the Wolverines are still at 80-1 odds, Portnoy felt that the risk was worth a potential payout of $810,000.
He even mocked the sportsbook he placed the bet with as he showed his betslip on social media.
‘Am I insane person or is [DraftKings] insane?,’ Portnoy posted on Saturday night.
’80-1 and we’re locked in to the sweet 16 and playing great basketball!’
Progression to the next round won’t be guaranteed though as Michigan will have to face the No. 1 overall seed – the Auburn Tigers.
