Stanley "Stan" Pines (commonly known as Grunkle Stan) is one of the main characters of the Disney animated series Gravity Falls, created and voiced by series creator Alex Hirsch. Stan is an older man with tenacious stubble, who wears a red fez (and its sometimes-changing symbol). For daily attire, he wears a black suit, white shirt and red bolo tie, along with a cane topped by a billiard 8-ball. He often affects an eye patch when working.
