Roberto Clemete

What about John Lennon?

 

[RobFunk]

Aaliyah's death has bothered me the most over the last ten years.

Only 22, this girl was destined to be the queen of pop music.

She was just getting started and cranking out tons of hits. What a voice.

 

[Betallsports]

Frank Sinatra? Geezus, the guy was like 82. An 82 year old guy dying shocks you?

Should throw Reagan in there too if thats your criteria.

An 82 year old Legend, Yes it was shocking ! Top Deaths should go by AGE ??? Since when ??

Plus I was in Las Vegas at the time, and it was the Only time Vegas ever turned off the Lights through out the city.

 

[Betallsports]

What about John Lennon?

Yep..

Guess I could have made this a Top 10

 

[WorldNumberOne]

What about John Lennon?

of course...

hard to crack the top 6 then... the 5 i listed + lennon.

MLK + Bobby Kennedy are also top 10.

 

[Betallsports]

I guess I was hung up on the word shocking. I remember seeing him (on video) fall down on stage in Brazil near the end. Was definitely saddened, but didn't come out of no where like Lennon (or Elvis, or yesterdays)

Wasn't the only time they dimmed the lights. They did it when Reagan died too.

I don't remember them doing it for Reagan :think2:

 

[maxdemo]

John Belushi

 

[texansfan]

Dale Earnhardt was a shocker.

 

[Betallsports]

Yup. Also did it for Sammy and JFK (and after 911)

You're going to have to show a link about these....Because I went to Reagan's Bio and nothing about.

Go to Frank's bio, it states it .

Wow, never knew that.....

Guess maybe because I wasn't there for the others.

Interesting , Thanks :toast:

 

[Betallsports]

I was surprised they didn't do it for Danny Gans.

Not wishing it on him, but I'm sure they will some day when Wayne Newton passes on.

Yeah, Mr. Las Vegas himself

Not a Fan, but he brings in the people everytime
