damn that sucks... i like him mostly because he was the basis for super dave! but it's sad he's dead. so i guess the "celebrity" deaths come in 3's in right huh. first the jackass form hawthorne heights, then the wanker from quiet riot and now evil. who knew.

As was the case with Elvis in his heyday, hot young females would regularly show up at events to offer themselves to Evel.

And many would be accompanied by their equally awestruck boyfriends who would patiently wait by until their partners were through.

And just maybe occurrences like these helped to inspire Evel's choice of theme music, namely, Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love."

i thought i had hep B or C once. not very fun. never really figured out what it was, i thought it was the flu for a bit but that doesn't seem logical now.

Sort of an anti-climactic death.

floatingslowly 12.01.2007 11:06 AM

all my favorite toys are dead.

First Kevin DuBrow, now Evil Knevel. There are no heroes left in the world.

PAULYBEE2656 12.02.2007 09:59 AM

val-holla-ing 12.02.2007 11:13 AM
