DPR4444 Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I was half - awake, but on Howard Stern today, I thought I heard them say that comedian Mitch Hedberg died. I can't find any verification of this on the net - anyone else hear about this?

buffalomike Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 that was indeed reported on the howard stern show but I have a feeling that it might be a premature april fools joke. I called the venue that he is supposed to be performing at tonight and they said that there are 2 shows tonight and they didnt say anything about him being DEAD.
colfax Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 ComedyCentral.com if it's a gag, Comedy Central is apparently in on the joke....check out the top right corner Mitch Hedberg 1968-2005 word is a heroin overdose
Ralonzo Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Nothing on his official webpage. 292262[/snapback] I imagine updating your website is low on your priority list when you are dead.
Zamboni Man Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I think it's a joke....notice on Comedy Central's site is says March 2005 and not an exact date.
colfax Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 another source (Update 12:23 PM EST) We have confirmed through two reputable sources that Mitch Hedberg died yesterday, March 30, 2005. A statement will be issued shortly by his representatives.
R. Rich Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I imagine updating your website is low on your priority list when you are dead. 292263[/snapback] Hahaha!!! How true.
Zamboni Man Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 "I got my hair highlighted, because I felt that some strands were more important than others." "I'm against picketing, but I don't know how to show it." "I used to do drugs. I still do drugs. But I used to, too." "I don't have a girlfriend. I just know a girl who would be really mad if she heard me say that." "I think pickles are cucumbers that sold out. They sold their soul to the devil, and the devil is dill..."
jayg Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 He was supposed to perform in Richmond last week but never showed. He was one of our very favourite comedians. I had a feeling it would end badly for him. I hope it's not true but if it is I hope you are at peace Mitch. Hahaha!!! How true. 292321[/snapback]
TheMadCap Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 saw him in Richmond a few months back. He was completely wasted.
jayg Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I was there too, was sad to see. saw him in Richmond a few months back. He was completely wasted. 292339[/snapback]
Zamboni Man Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 According to a Minnesota News Paper it's true... Full Story I got this username and password from Bugmenot.com: gorevidal@me.too bush666 That really sucks. RIP
Dan Gross Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 The Improv's main web site has a picture/dates tribute. The Baltimore Improv (where he was scheduled to perform starting tonight) has nothing on their calendar for this weekend. This is looking true.... Ironically, Screech is scheduled to be @ the Baltimore Improv in a couple of weeks....
udonkey Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I'll believe it AFTER tomorrow - seems to be too close to April 1 and potentially a publicity stunt. Since when does Howard Stern break news like that?

jayg Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 My girlfiend spoke with someone who works at the Funny bone in Short pump(Richmond). She said he was doing speed balls and he was in a Baltimore hotel. Didn't anyone learn anything from John Belushi?
