'Old School' Actor 'Blue' Dies

(andPOP) - Patrick Cranshaw, who played "Blue" in Old School, died on Wednesday at his home in Fort Worth, Texas, of natural causes. He was 86.

Though an acting veteran of over 50 years, Cranshaw is best known ? among people under 30 at least?for his small role as a frat brother in the Will Ferrell and Vince Vaughn film Old School.

In a memorable scene, Blue is ready to fight two topless women in a mud wrestling match, when he dies of a heart attack.

At his funeral, Ferrell yells, "You're my boy, Blue," a line that people yelled out to Cranshaw before his death.

Cranshaw will appear in Air Buddies, a film set for release sometime this year. He most recently appeared in Herbie: Fully Loaded, and has also been in Best in Show, Almost Heroes, Ed Wood, The Beverly Hillbillies, Pee-wee's Big Adventure, Bonnie and Clyde and Green Acres.
