Celebrity Death Thread

[Panoptes]

Probably didn't take the news his liver was shot too well. He was a small man with a way too big drinking habit.

Verne Troyer reportedly had 3 times the legal limit of alcohol in his system at the time of his death

So...one beer?

[Panoptes]

Cold!

Cold beer

I live about 8 miles from Verne's boyhood home. Following the Austin Powers movies, they used to put his senior pic with a "home of Verne Troyer" sign just outside the village. People kept stealing them so now they just have a sign, no pic.

Wow I cant imagine a little guy like that with a drinking problem.....The deck is stacked against him already....still enjoyed his character.

[Trickalicious]

Sad story. I cut him off from my hotel mini bar more than once. Too expensive and I needed his spot at the bar to keep my leftovers cool.

Yeah as really heard he was a wild party guy that Verne. May he find peace.

One of my favorite coaches ever... RIP

Longtime NFL coach Chuck Knox dead at 86

By*Samuel Chamberlain | Fox News

Chuck Knox, who led the Los Angeles Rams to five consecutive division titles in the 1970s (F U Vikings for thwarting the Rams so often) and later guided the Seattle Seahawks to their first two playoff appearances, has died at the age of 86.

He was once a Lions assistant. After he left for the Rams the Lions wanted him back but iirc he was under contract and the Rams wanted a lot to give him up. "Ground Chuck" RIP. Very good coach.

Hopefully she has found her forever safe bush

She was recently interviewed by the Drew and Mike podcast. She sounded a bit off but okay for the most part.
