'''B.H. Pirkle''' is a character in [[EarthBound]]. He is the mayor of [[Onett]], and is shown to be a lazy person, usually preferring for other people to do his work. [[Ness]] first meets him when he is trying to find a way to enter to [[Giant Step]]. He asks Ness to get rid of the [[Sharks]] in exchange for the [[List of key items in EarthBound|Key to the shack]]. He gives out the key once the player has defeated [[Frank]]. | '''B.H.
