For the first seven seasons of the show, Stan's sporadic girlfriend was Wendy Testaburger. In the early days of the series a running gag would be that Stan would throw up out of nervousness whenever Wendy spoke to him. As the show progressed... the Stan-Wendy storyline diminished greatly. In the penultimate episode of the seventh season, "Raisins", Wendy had Bebe tell Stan that "she breaks up", for Token, causing Stan to go into extreme depression. Wendy has played a much smaller part in the series since this episode. It became apparent that Stan had some lingering feelings for Wendy in the episode "Follow That Egg!"

In February 2003, Stan began developing a television segment he would host for Chicago’s Public Broadcasting Station. The once a month segment would highlight a different historical piece of Chicago’s Black community. In July 2003, his first “Back in The Day” segment aired on Chicago Tonight, WTTW’s local news program. “Back in The Day” received a 2003-2004 Emmy Nomination, in Category No. 6, Outstanding Achievement within a regularly scheduled News Program-Feature Series/Soft News. In December 2004, Stan left a 28-year career in the HVAC/ATC/BMS industry to pursue a career in radio and television. In addition to his contributions on the Steve Dahl Show, and his work for WTTW, Stan can be heard on radio station WCKG (with partner Terry Armour), weekdays from 11:00 AM - 02:00 PM.

Stan wears a dark blue hat with a red trim on the bottom and a red poof-ball at the top. He wears a red-collared brown coat, blue jeans, and red mittens or gloves. He has a plain mop of thick, shaggy black hair, like his father. Stan ... apparently has blue eyes, as noted by Kyle when Butters makes construction paper versions of the boys in "A Very Crappy Christmas". In "The List", he ranked third in the initial corrupt list of who was cutest. However, he was not mentioned among those who had to change places due to the corruption, so it is possible that he is the second cutest boy, behind Token.

Stan was born and raised on the Southside of Chicago, living in the Bronzeville, Oakwood, and Chatham neighborhoods. In March 1971, during his freshman year of high school (Lindblom Tech.); the radio bug bit him when he got to host a 1-hour air-shift on radio station WVON 1450 AM, as a teen disc-jockey on the Herb Kent Show. During his senior year of high school, he hung out at WHPK 88.5 FM, managing to get on the air numerous times.
