===Early life and family=== Hank Hill was born at [[Yankee Stadium (1923)|Yankee Stadium]] in [[The Bronx, New York]].<ref name=koths5e10 /> According to the episode "Yankee Hankie," Hank proudly believed he was born in Texas to [[Tilly Hill|Tilly Mae Hill]] and [[Cotton Hill|Cotton Lyndal Hill]] but finds (to his disgust and horror) that he was actually born in [[New York City]]. His mother told him she gave birth to Hank in the women's restroom at Yankee Stadium during Cotton's failed attempt to [[Assassination attempts on Fidel Castro|assassinate Fidel Castro]] during a rare American visit. [[Fidel Castro]] visited New York City on April 15, implying that April 15 is Hank's birthday. After referring to himself as a native Texan for forty years, he was sad to learn he was born in New York, but over time, accepted his heritage when he realized that many of the [[Alamo]] heroes were not from Texas, either. Hank, who previously thought he was an only child, finds out he has a Japanese half brother named Junichiro in the episode "Returning Japanese". This is due to an affair Cotton Hill had with his Japanese nurse while recovering from leg injuries in [[post-World War II]] Japan. Also, in the episode "[[Hank Gets Dusted]]", Hank is shown to be the cousin of [[ZZ Top]] bassist and vocalist [[Dusty Hill]]. Hank is an [[Eagle Scout (Boy Scouts of America)|Eagle Scout]].<ref>Season 6, episode 11, Unfortunate Son Cotton Hill "The only uniform he ever wore was the boy scouts" Hank " I made it to Eagle Scout...."</ref> Hank is set in his ways and afraid of taking risks, but generally a good person. Although he is traditionally conservative in his attitude, in how he dislikes change and novel situations, he can adapt to them quite well, quickly mastering unfamiliar social milieus. He can be pushed too far on occasion, usually by his son, [[Bobby Hill (King of the Hill)|Bobby]], and neighbors [[Bill Dauterive (King of the Hill)|Bill Dauterive]], [[Dale Gribble]], and, (to a lesser extent) [[Boomhauer]]. Most openings of ''King of the Hill'' start with Hank, Dale, Bill and Boomhauer all agreeing to something before the action kicks in, drinking from Alamo branded beer cans. A running joke throughout the series is an angry Hank yelling "I'm gonna kick your ass!" This is just a threat; he rarely, if ever, harms anyone, though he has literally kicked at least two people in the posterior out of anger (an acupuncturist in "Hank's Unmentionable Problem" and Jimmy Wichard in "Life in the Fast Lane: Bobby's Saga"). Hank's honesty and naivety often get him in unpredictable and troublesome situations. Ultimately, Hank cares for the people around him, particularly his family and friends and is always out to do what is right. One characteristic that Hank shows is when he lies to someone, he turns his head or looks around the room.
