RIP, Pretzy

Arnold Stang, "Pretzy" from Milky & I's beloved Arnie film Hercules in New York (full review), has died at the age of 91. He was most famous as the voice of "Top Cat" and Catfish from "Jabberjaw," as well as the bespectacled Ray from It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World. He had serious roles too, such as Sparrow in The Man with the Golden Arm, alongside Sinatra. He was a likeable character, and may he rest in peace. Maybe he's selling pretzels in Olympus.
