Breakfast Club principal passes away

Postby Alex Hush » Mon May 29, 2006 5:26 am

BURBANK, Calif. (AP) - Paul Gleason, who played the go-to bad guy in Trading Places and the angry high school principal in The Breakfast Club, has died. He was 67.
Gleason died at a local hospital Saturday of mesothelioma, a rare form of lung cancer linked to asbestos, said his wife, Susan Gleason.

This is sad news indeed [V]
At least he was able to parody himself in Not Another Teen Movie.

Was he the principal? I thought he was just the dean of students.

It was awesome when that dude would show the horns!
