Dude, this is one of my comedy heroes. I know we're losing these more and more, but geez I loved this guy.
 
I had a feeling this was coming soon. I was so glad he had made as many apperances as Mr. Potato Head as he did. (And yes, I of knew him and his comedy long before Toy Story.)
 
My mom was pregnant with me when she went to a Tonight Show and Don Rickles was a guest with Johnny Carson. I've been a fan since I was in utero.

RIP Mr. Warmth.
 
I liked Casino, but I wish he had a bigger role - missed opportunity.

Here's a great clip of him roasting Scorcese and then getting super sweet:

Don was on the Tonight Show one night when Johnny was absent. Don did a bit where he was stamping passports and he used Johnny's cigarette box as the stamper. It broke. Johnny found out the next night and this is what happened.

I lost it at "They know who I am!"
