DETROIT — Soupy Sales, the rubber-faced comedian whose anything-for-a-chuckle career was built on 20,000 pies to the face and 5,000 live TV appearances across a half-century of laughs, has died. He was 83.

I watched Soupy as a kid. Thanks for the laughs, Soupy-rest now, you did your job well.

I loved that guy. He was a staple of 70's era TV.

RIP sir.

RIP Soupy. Great comedian.

Sigh. And another of the old-guard links to the golden age of vaudeville falls...
