Made ya look, haha.
Well it's may 15, 20 years to the day that Andy Kaufman "died" of lung cancer (he was a non-smoker). He talked about faking his own death several times during his career, and many of his die-hard fans believe that he is still alive and will come back today. He's probably dead, or he's masquerading as Ann Coulter. The point to this is that he's made himself into a legend, like a funny Elvis, refusing to be dismissed by history, even 20 years after his death.
Just in case: have any of you folks seen him around recently?

Andy Kaufman is dead. Marilyn Monroe is dead. Elvis is dead. Tupac is Dead. And so is everybody else that people say aren't dead. Andy Kaufman was okay, but a legend, come on. In that case so is Bob Sagat.

I saw pictures of him making out with Britney Spears in some night club last week.

Actually: "Andy Kaufman died at 6:27 PM on May 16, 1984" not may 15, the only reason I know that is because he died the same day I was born Hey, maybe i'm his reincarnation ha!!!

II do agree that the man was funny. Even if most people didn't get him. I put him in the same class as Monty Python, some people just don't get it. I remember watching Holy Grail with some friends and laughing my ass off, and they all sat there like I was an idiot. Kaufman was funny, but he wasn't a legend. Everyone knows who Elvis was (or IS for the true believers out there...sorry) Elvis was a legend, but most have never heard of Kaufman. I bet if you go out and ask 10 people form different age groups, maybe 4 or 5 will know who he is.

I guess only if people saw Man on the Moon would they even really remember. But Kaufman was great, Taxi and he basically created the WWF, but not too many would know that.

Well it looks like we're gonna have to wait another 10 years. I guess Andy decided to stay dead this time 'round.
Frozilla, Tupac IS NOT DEAD!! How could he release new remixs every year if he was dead? There's no way his friends and mother could stoop to such low levels by exploiting his death, why that would be downright nutty!

Well, until its reported by a few other news outlets, he's just a fat guy with sunglasses. Not that i think Yahoo is misleading, but i think if it was really him, you'd have his family and the casts of SNL and Taxi confirming it.

That is just weird. I bet that is Bob Zmuda dressed up as Clifton going around trying to be Andy. I agree with Bitcount, until it is on Fox news or MSNBC then it is just a great big gag....again.

Dude if Fox reported that the sky was blue, i'd step outside and to make sure for myself.
But i'm really sure that's not him (i could be wrong), but there would really be more of an uproar about it, and the feds would be after him too; faking your death is illegal in the US.

Bitcount, did you create that article? I wouldn't be surprised if someone read this thread and posted it on the Yahoo.
But I don't beleive it. Kaufman returns would be front page news in Canada. We put new speed bumps as front page news, so I think that story would be quite important.

I can assure you i'm not the creator of that article, i found out about it after Donbrasco posted it, 2 days after i first posted this topic.

I assumed you didn`t start it, but I wouldn`t be surprised if it was some how inspired by the creation of interest in this disscussion.

ANDY WHO???? Have you forgotten the Lords & New Creatures? Have you forgotten the dawn and the things of past? Do you remember Elvis and his Mojo Risin? The naked nights.... and the dreams our minds have had yesterday. Which comedians have died to welcome you here today?
Welcome here today..... welcome the smiles.
WELCOME HERE!

Ya I was kind of thinking the same. Or maybe our friend spankees was born in 1984 and is the reincarned himself. Oh the honour of talking to the old undead, reborn.

The real Lynne Margulies (Courtney Love) is selling ultra Rare Andy stuff from her private collection. Some say to piss Andy off and smoke him out.
Thanks
