Another tv personality needs help with medical bills, Pawn Stars'' Corey Harrison turns to fans

Pawn Stars'' Corey Harrison turns to fans for help with medical bills

Updated March 6, 2026, 10:45 a.m. ET


Corey Harrison, a former reality television fixture on the show "Pawn Stars," is opening up about the financial toll of his medical care following a motorcycle crash in Mexico.

Harrison, 42, also known as "Big Hoss," told TMZ in a new interview that he checked out of the hospital early to avoid extra costs, only to be returned to intensive care days later for additional surgeries. The crash, earlier this year, left him with a concussion, 11 broken ribs and clear facial injuries.

The "Pawn Stars" businessman told TMZ that his original decision to leave the hospital backfired when he then needed a morphine drip to deal with excruciating pain, and was forced to return to a different, cheaper facility shortly after as his oxygen levels were falling.

Harrison, who had to miss his father, Rick Harrison's, wedding because of the ordeal, revealed to the outlet that he now owes some $120,000 in medical bills. With a reported $400 in his bank account, he said, he's considering turning to fans to ask for help.

"What am I going to do, fly out to Vegas and sell stuff? I can't move from my recliner," he told TMZ, adding that while he still gets some residual checks from his stint on "Pawn Stars" he is no longer on the show. A GoFundMe has since been set up in his name to raise money for the costs. As of Friday, March 6, it amassed just shy of $5,000
