'''The Sneak''' (a.k.a. "'''The Dapper Swindler'''") is the [[Old-Timey]] version of [[The Cheat]], and takes the appearance of an [[Didelphimorphia|opossum]]. He is always silent (save for when [[Sickly Sam's Big Outing|delivering a telegram]]) and communicates by waving his nose. He's the [[Strong Man]]'s greatest pal, and loves to join [[Old-Timey Strong Bad]] in causing catastrophe. His schemes include dropping [[The Homestar Runner]] from his "flying machine", stealing fresh jam and putting a Bengal tiger in [[The Kaiser]]'s latrine. He supposedly likes to do the [[Hully Gully|hully gully]] on the [[Panama Canal]], but has only been seen doing it on a barrel. The a cappella group [[DaVinci's Notebook]] wrote a song for him, entitled the [[Ballad of The Sneak]], which was made into a cartoon by [[The Brothers Chaps]]. The lyrics in the song suggest that The Sneak is yellow in color, similar to his present day double, despite the fact that the Old-Timey cartoons have no color. However, his [[Storybook Character Variations|storybook version]] from [[Homestar Runner Goes for the Gold]] still appears in black and white.

The Dapper Swindler himself

The Sneak (a.k.a. "The Dapper Swindler") is the Old-Timey version of The Cheat, and takes the appearance of an opossum. He is always silent (save for when delivering a telegram) and communicates by waving his nose. He's the Strong Man's greatest pal, and loves to join Old-Timey Strong Bad in causing catastrophe. His schemes include dropping The Homestar Runner from his "flying machine", stealing fresh jam and putting a Bengal tiger in The Kaiser's latrine. He supposedly likes to do the hully gully on the Panama Canal, but has only been seen doing it on a barrel. The a cappella group DaVinci's Notebook wrote a song for him, entitled the Ballad of The Sneak, which was made into a cartoon by The Brothers Chaps. The lyrics in the song suggest that The Sneak is yellow in color, similar to his present day double, despite the fact that the Old-Timey cartoons have no color. However, his storybook version from Homestar Runner Goes for the Gold still appears in black and white.
