Stu Nahan Dies at 81...

SoCal'ers will remember him fondly. I'd forgotten about this 80s link..

"Nahan also appeared as himself in films, perhaps most memorably in "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" as the straight man to outrageous stoner/surfer Jeff Spicoli in a dream sequence in which Spicoli is being interviewed at the beach after winning a surfing competition. It's in that sequence, in response to one of Nahan's interview questions, that Spicoli calls surfing "a way of looking at that wave and saying 'Hey Bud, let's party.' "

[:(] He will be missed. I got to meet him a a celebrity/charity basketball game at UC Irvine back in the 80's. I should have asked him where he got his jacket, like Spiccoli did [;)]

He was also the announcer for the Rocky movies.

Rest in Peace Stu! [:(]
