wow.

[Protagoras]

I'm not buying.

[HAL9000]

He supposedly said that - if his death was a hoax - he would return 20 years later.

I don't expect he will return.

[dawn53]

Is it a hoax? I always thought it was a little strange that he had died of lung cancer yet had never smoked. I know that's possible, but not exactly probable.

If he really is alive how could he remain incognito for all these years???

[oyez]

You mean it was just like Jerry Lawler dropping him on his head. A fake?

[Tennessean4Bush]

Baloney!

[lavrenti]

The most obtuse man of the latter 20th century strikes again. Either it's him, a buddy of his who set this up as a gag w/him back when he was dying or it's a merry prankster who, Andy, from beyond the grave would dearly appreciate.

The blog reads like an Andy Kaufman gag. Remember everyone fell for the Jerry Lawler deal. Took Lawler years before he finally fess up that even that was a gag.

Sorry, but his mother's response is not authentic.

All mothers know that when a lost child is returned to us, our response is not to say "I'm glad to have him back," but to give him a good spanking.

Andy, I never thought you were funny when you were alive and likely won't change my mind now.  You seem to have put your family through hell.

All accounts come due on judgement day, think about it.

Hmmm. Well, although I never thought Andy Kaufman was particularly talented, if this isn't a hoax I must say he'll get some style points from me.

[Destro]

We're sorry. This release has been placed on 'Dispute Hold'.

[Lancey Howard]

Ummm....
The problem is that because the subject is Andy Kaufmann, anything is possible. Even this.

[alloysteel]

This is a put-on, right?


Andy Kaufman got DEADED.

[Caesar Soze]

Feels like a Neil Gaiman story. The reality of whether or not this person has come back from the dead doesn't really matter. What matters is the story; the story endures, and the myth has a life all its own.
