RIP Bandit.

I saw him on a cheesy extended warranty infomercial this summer. He did not look well.

When I was a young (er) man, who didn`t want a Black-n-Gold Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am like the one in "Smokey and the Bandit".

I still think one of his best movies was "The Longest Yard". I was unaware he played college football at Florida on a scholarship and had aspirations of being a professional football player until a car accident wrecked his knee.

If they still made that car , they would still sell every one!

He played football IN Florida at Florida State. Here is an article that highlights a `different` Burt Reynolds - Burt Reynolds will always be 'Buddy' at Florida State - Orlando Sentinel
