Billy Mays Dead at 50

Neighbors in the South Tampa neighborhood that TV pitch man Billy Mays lives in are reporting to the BRN that as of 8am eastern time Billy Mays died. No foul play has been reported. Remember you heard it first here!
In a related story Mays was on board the U.S. Airways plane flight 1241 that had a front tire blowout at Tampa International Airport yesterday.
Stay tuned to the show for more information!

This would definitely be breaking news from the BRN, it’s not on any websites yet.

How much truth is there to this?
We will just have to see.
I have heard, like, twice in the last year or so that “Billy Mays Died”.
If so, Crazy. They say that they go in 3s or 5s.
1st Ed McMahon, 2nd Farrah, then Wacko Jacko…

Billy was the pride of Pittsburgh (actually Stowe Twp) where his parents and family still reside. He was a local hometown kid who made quite a name for himself. He was so sweet and was the love of his Mother’s life!! He will be so very sadly missed. May he rest in Peace. My deepest sympathy to his family.

It’s true. He was on the plane that had a rough landing in Tampa – stated things flying around and something hit his head, but he stated he was fine “had a hard head”. Later he was found dead by wife at home in Tampa.
June 28th, 2009 at 2:33 pm
Seems as though with every day that passes, another annoyance is being removed from my life. I’ll never have to read another story about Michael Jackson molesting some poor innocent child. And now, I’ll never have to see another ad with this gawd awful man screeching at the camera. Life is good…

June 28th, 2009 at 4:33 pm
Guaranteed it was a subdural hematoma that did him in…sudden massive bleeding of the brain. I had the same thing but lived to tell about it.
June 28th, 2009 at 5:55 pm
Ashame all the famous deaths occuring in the last week. The end is near….
June 28th, 2009 at 5:59 pm
Even God is sick of these ads. Oh well! shiz happens
June 28th, 2009 at 6:11 pm
TMZ has audio that MJ put up on his site of him talking to Anthony Sullivan where MJ is claiming that he spoke to Billy just before he went to bed lastnight .. So now MJ is gonna be telling everyone that he was the last person ever speak to Billy Mays…. MJ is such a loser!!!
June 28th, 2009 at 7:00 pm
Actually, his plane had a rough landing and he hit his head, then when he got home he had some internal bleeding, and was later found dead in his home…that is what really happened.
June 28th, 2009 at 8:10 pm
MJ is a big fing buffoon. I hope he gets a haircut real close to the shoulders. RIP Billy
June 28th, 2009 at 9:31 pm
when he gets to the other side, Ed Mcmahon will say “HERE’S BILLY”
June 28th, 2009 at 9:40 pm
Sounds like that head injury natasha Richardson had…. Too bad May he rest in peace
June 28th, 2009 at 9:42 pm
On all the local tv news stations here in Pittsburgh, the death of Billy Mays was lead story. Then came news Michael Jackson. Again, Pittsburgh does it right.
June 28th, 2009 at 10:44 pm
Apparently he suffered severe cranial trauma from being blasted with a PedEgg. His wife reportedly cleaned the blood with ShamWows and washed them with OxyClean.
June 29th, 2009 at 1:14 am
Just saw a news story on Fox 11 in L.A. and they had clips of Schnitt saying that he talked to Billy Mays after the airplane incident and then talking to the co host of Pitch Men. What an idiot, I hate that little douche bag.
June 29th, 2009 at 2:15 am
The next time I’m watching an infomercial about ‘Chia Pet Hair Growth Spray in a can’ or ‘The Ass Flexor 5000′,I’ll be saying to myself;”This jabroni is just a BM wannabe.” I hope that his family can cash in on the Billy Mays(TM) do-it-yourself coffin kit. (super glue not included)

My cousin told me this as I was playing 360, I froze and gave a blank look at the screen. Hours later here I am almost in tears writing this to in my own way pay respects, Since the release of pitchmen I have been hooked each week watching him getting to know and understand the man behind that booming voice. This fan will greatly miss him, and to his family and Anthony Sullivan, Clearly you knew him better than I but from what I saw he was a great man, I don’t get star struck but he truly was someone I gladly would have met in person.

I just took a Schnitt and wiped my MJ with the Breaking News the 3/4 midget man is claiming. Time stamps on Google show who really reported it first. The BRN. Coming from someone who is only knee high to a brown eye, it’s only natural he is always talking shizzzzzzz.
June 29th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
Tim..it’s the AWESOME AGUER YOU ASSHOLE! GET IT RIGHT_ don’t make fun of Billy.
June 29th, 2009 at 4:05 pm
They say they go in 3’s (Ed McMahon, Farrah, And MJ). It would be just like Billy Mays to throw one more in COMPLETELY FREE!

May Billy Mays rest in peace despite some of the negative things people say.
