Yancy Fry Jr. is the son of Yancy Fry Sr. and Mrs. Fry, and the older brother to Philip J. Fry.

Biography

Yancy at three years of age, with his then newborn younger brother Philip (3ACV10).

Early years

Yancy was jealous of his three years younger brother Philip from birth, partly because of the attention their parents spent on their new baby instead of him, and partly because he wanted his brother's name instead of his own.

In their teens, Philip was talented at both basketball and break dancing, while Yancy was always mediocre. Due to jelousy, Yancy would steal Philip's original moves and claim them as his own. After his brother found a seven-leaf clover and succeeded in pulling off an impossible move, Yancy tried to steal the clover, forcing Philip to hide it in his Ronco Record Vault.

Adult life

Yancy, unlike his parents, seemed a little more concerned about his brother's disappearance and later grew to miss him. Before his wedding, while looking for records in the Ronco Vault, Yancy found the clover, but never used it. When his wife gave birth to a child they agreed to name him Philip J. Fry after his brother and gave him Philip's old seven leaf clover, thus ensuring his future success.

These events were slightly altered when time paradox created a duplicate of Philip J. Fry I which lived for another twelve years in the 21st century after the original Philip was frozen before going missing again. However, despite his brother technically not being frozen, Yancy still named his son after him.
