He landed roles in several commercials, including one for Napster that aired during Super Bowl *IX. Lacy first met Johnny Knoxville through Knoxville's ex-wife, who ran a clothing company. Lacy was hired to transport textiles for the clothing company. After becoming friends with Knoxville, Lacy began to suggest ideas for the Jack* series to him.

Jack*

When on Jack*, Lacy is most often featured with Jason "Wee Man" Acuña and their most common skit involves Lacy chasing after Acuña down public streets in nothing more than their briefs and white T-shirts, showing off his obesity. Lacy has contributed many of the ideas that later became Jack* skits and stunts. He is also known for his anger outbursts, the most memorable of which occurred during the "Eggnog Challenge" for the Jack* Christmas Special. In Jack* 2.5 (2007), it was revealed that Lacy has an extreme fear of heights.
