Andy, did you hear about this one? [new Andy Kaufman rumor]

Zmuda could very well be in on it, and “not being in on it” could very well be his role in it.

I’d buy that.

If Kaufman is alive let’s all prank him and pretend we have no idea who he is/was.

C’mon-that’s exactly what Kaufman did for a living.

I’m not objecting to the fact that they’re screwing with people. It’s in keeping with the Andy Kaufman thing for sure. I’m just saying it’s obvious that’s what they’re doing. Really now: why would anyone take this stuff at face value?

This is going to be the biggest news since Judge Crater showed up!

Ahem.

True, but you were ninja’d by the article linked to in the OP.

Maybe.
Or maybe Andy Kaufman joined the SDMB, oh, say, about nine years ago, to spread rumors and disinformation…

:smiley:

Cuz fun?

I can understand participating in the whole Kaufman-verse because it’s fun. But taking stunts like this as evidence he’s really alive? A fan should be skeptical of anything like this, shouldn’t they?

Andy was (is) one of the best trolls EVER!

ymmv

Oh sure, he’s gonna come out of hiding NOW, when Jerry Lawler is no longer able to kick his ass due to his own health issues.

Santa Claus? I never told my younger brother and sister the truth out of fear the presents would stop. Same here.

Believe Elvis is still alive—you are nuts.
“Believe” Andy faked his death----you are participating in his extended performance art piece.
