Very sad. RIP Gold and Blue Dude

[TD_6082]

This is really heartbreaking. I know many here on the board know about him. My 11 year old stumbled upon his YouTube channel last year around this time in anticipation of the 2022 Back Yard Brawl. He died unexpectedly this weekend, but apparently had health issues most of his life.

Even though he's a hoopie, I think he has 2 young kids left behind. Here's the link to his GoFundMe if anyone wants to donate.

I gave a little. One donation of $13 and one on $9. Seemed fitting.

FWIW, There's a live stream tribute on his YouTube Channel now.

You kidding? Wow. I stumbled upon this dude last year and started watching his videos regularly for a few months. He was actually a really nice dude who I found fairly entertaining. And, as his intros stated, he always had thick skin. Damn. Poor guy. He was young.

When I saw this on Twitter, at first I thought it was Lambert because I know he hasn't been well but this is terrible.
