Now, Billy Mays Dead At 50
In what has been a whirlwind couple of weeks for Hollywood, world famous pitch man Billy Mays was found dead at his Florida Home. He was fifty years old. Billy Mays follows the likes of Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon, and David Carradine to the grave. A crazy few weeks to say the least.
Billy Mays will be remembered for his uptempo salesmanship. The guy was always so excited about whatever he was selling. Did not matter if it wasy Oxi Clean, Orange Glow (whatever it was), or the Miracle Putty (again not sure on the name). The guy practically yelled for the entire length of the commercial or infomercial whichever he was featured in.
Rest in peace, Billy Mays..
Here is one of his final interviews, courtesy of youtube:
