Alan King was one of the greats. He, along with Buddy Hackett & Don Rickles were among “THE” great Jewish comedians.

Funny how most youngster might know him from his movie roles, the last one of which I’m aware was co-staring with Robert Dinero and Don Rickles in “Casino.”

I believe that he could have been a very good actor if he would have pursued it. He did this mobster in Steven King’s “Cat’s Eye” that genuinely scared me - as an adult!

The first “Final Warning” that he did made me laugh so hard that I almost busted a kidney.
