RIP Patrick Swayze

At the age of 57. Seemed like a hell of a human being. And every male I know has some sort of special affinity for Road House. Must be a Kelly Lynch thing?

Sorry for the DB

 

Fuck it. His death deserves his own thread.

RIP

 

One of Hollywood's good guys, by all accounts I've ever heard.
RIP, Patrick

 

Exactly, especially since it's on deadline. People can get something in the paper now.

 

indeed. he starred in several huge movies in the '80s. nobody put baby in a corner ever again, dammit!

seemed like a star who made women swoon and yet was a man's man all the way. rip, indeed.

hope someone can post the snl chippendales skit with him and farley. a classic.

hey, they can perform it for farrah in heaven now!

 

I guess Farrah Fawcett asked God for a better dance parter.

RIP, Patrick.

(AP) — HEAVEN — Traded Saint Simon-Peter to the Mere Mortals for cooler Patrick Swayze.

 

Surprised to learn that he was that old. Guess that means he was in his 30s when played in all those 80s teen movies like Red Dawn, Youngblood and the Outsiders.

The guy was memorable part of many memorable flicks from my youth. Sad news. RIP, Patrick.

 

Even better in Ghost.
