The term “Baba Booey” is more than just the nickname of Gary Dell’Abate, producer of the Howard Stern Show. It has become the mantra for fans of the show. Yell out “Baba Booey” and you declare your love for everything Howard Stern.
For over 2o years Gary Dell’Abate has lived with the nickname. His mispronunciation of the Hanna-Barbara character Baba Looey’s name, earned him the now infamous title.
