Roy Horn of Siegfried & Roy Dies of Coronavirus at 75

I’ll never forget while on my honeymoon in Tahoe in 03’ my wife and I were at a casino. We sat down at the black jack table and the dealer asked us where we were from. We told him Michigan and he said “How bout them Tigers?” This kid at the table said “which ones, the ones from Detroit or the ones that ate Roy?”

I remember when he got arrested people were like hey Fred this is the 21st century there’s free porn on the internet. He lived up to his main shtick. He was truly the master of cluelessness.

I didn’t say it didn’t happen, I said that’s not his legacy. The dude was a fucking comic acting genius. His timing and delivery were perfect, and he did it for decades, a lot of times off script. The arrest is barely a blip in a very long, storied career.

Damn, I'm old enough that I remember my dad taking me to a game around 70-71 in Chicago. Him, Bob Love, Chet Walker, were damn good. They had a fourth guy that was good too. I can't remember him. Bucks had Kareem (might have still been Alcindor) The Big O, Bob Dandridge, Johnny McGlocklin. I bet I have the program in my moms house attic somewhere. But maybe not. I think she purged a lot of shit that I could make some money on now, after we all moved out. That was in the 80's when it wan't crazy like it is now.

Moses Malone died about two weeks after Darryl Dawkins.

If Moses Malone died today then why don’t we have a celebrity/notable resurrection thread?

What's up with all of the major college sports legends passing the last couple of weeks? Eddie Sutton, Pat Dye, now Johnny Majors. They say deaths come in threes, so hopefully that's it for a while

by **Rocinante** Wed Jun 03, 2020 11:28 pm

I’m going to take a wild guess that the reason they are dying off is that they’re old.
