'''Bandy Andy''' is a [[Big Bandit]] who appears in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He is one of the various contracted fighters enlisted in the [[Glitz Pit]], where he is a member of a fighting team composed of [[Bandit]]s and Big Bandits, called [[The Hand-It-Overs]].


'''Bandy Andy''' is a [[Big Bandit]] that fights at the [[Glitz Pit]] and is leader of his team, the [[Hand-it-Overs]], in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He is not usually in the locker room, as he is more interested in the rumors about the Glitz Pit rather than the fighting. This later proves to be bad, as he walked in on [[Grubba]] while he was powering up. Grubba then took Bandy Andy and absorbed his power. He was then thrown under a block with [[King K]] and was seen moaning when found. It was believed that he died but after Grubba was defeated, but he is seen again and well enough to fight again. When Mario had to go through the Glitz Pit all over again, he beat Bandy Andy's team again. His team is also known as the "[[Grim Death Burglars]]". He appears to have a crush on the Glitz Pit manager, [[Jolene]].
[[Mario]] encounters Bandy Andy during his search for the [[Gold Star]]. Bandy Andy is one of Mario's fellow fighters and roommates in the minor-league, a group of the lowest ranked combatants of the combatant roster. Although Bandy Andy belongs to the minor-league locker room, he is rarely in it and can usually be encountered at the backstage area of the Glitz Pit. It is said that he often goes on rambles to research gossip tales known as the [[Glitz Pit#Seven Wonders of the Glitz Pit|seven wonders of the Glitz Pit]]. When Mario meets him at the backstage area, Bandy Andy will tell him about these seven wonders. At some point during Mario's fight with [[The Pokey Triplets]], Bandy Andy attempted to enter a room that, according to [[Jolene]], was off-limits and was also implied to be stalking her. While doing research, he accidentally runs into [[Grubba]], the Glitz Pit manager, while he uses a power-absorbing machine to rejuvenate his body. Grubba then uses the [[Power-draining machine|machine's]] power to drain Bandy Andy as well and locks him up in a storage room chamber, along with [[King K]], who has also been drained.

Bandy Andy, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Bandy Andy is a Big Bandit who appears in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He is one of the various contracted fighters enlisted in the Glitz Pit, where he is a member of a fighting team composed of Bandits and Big Bandits, called The Hand-It-Overs.

Mario encounters Bandy Andy during his search for the Gold Star. Bandy Andy is one of Mario's fellow fighters and roommates in the minor-league, a group of the lowest ranked combatants of the combatant roster. Although Bandy Andy belongs to the minor-league locker room, he is rarely in it and can usually be encountered at the backstage area of the Glitz Pit. It is said that he often goes on rambles to research gossip tales known as the seven wonders of the Glitz Pit. When Mario meets him at the backstage area, Bandy Andy will tell him about these seven wonders. At some point during Mario's fight with The Pokey Triplets, Bandy Andy attempted to enter a room that, according to Jolene, was off-limits and was also implied to be stalking her. While doing research, he accidentally runs into Grubba, the Glitz Pit manager, while he uses a power-absorbing machine to rejuvenate his body. Grubba then uses the machine's power to drain Bandy Andy as well and locks him up in a storage room chamber, along with King K, who has also been drained. When Mario eventually finds Bandy Andy in the storage room, he is barely conscious at that time and tries to warn Mario of Grubba's scheme. While Bandy Andy is gone, his team is replaced by The Destructors.

After Mario defeats Macho Grubba, Bandy Andy is able to regain his former strength. He can then be seen during the chapter epilogue, along with King K. After this, he returns to his usual business: doing research on the Glitz Pit. Bandy Andy and The Hand-It-Overs can also be fought again during Mario's second Glitz Pit run.
