Mongo only pawn in game of life.
Don’t shoot him, you’ll just make him mad.
Alex was a hometown boy who made good. Grew up only a few miles from here, back when Gary Indiana hadn’t gone the way of Detroit.
God Bless him. I don’t know from football, but i liked his acting. Particularly I liked him as Hughie Rae Feather in “The 500 lb Jerk”, an old made for TV movie where Karras goes for olympic gold via weightlifting. Of course as Mongo, he ruled (Another one of those thousands of hidden easter eggs in “Blazing Saddles”).
The last I remember him being in was Victor Victoria, and he was damned good in that too. Well, I assume so, I was too busy drooling over Julie Andrews (I STILL have a thing for that woman)
On the other hand, we also just lost Arlen Sphincter.
Wish they coulda taken Arlen and Dick Durban, and left us Mongo for a few more years. Karras was involved in the suit over head injuries in football, and I imagine his contributed to his demise. Godspeed, Mongo. Pawn takes Knight.
