This is a Stool exclusive.  Mr. Butch is dead.    Yup, he died in a freak Vespa accident earlier today.   Apparently he drove his Vespa into a telephone pole or something to that effect.  This is not a joke.   We have an inside source who phoned this into us earlier today.   What Mr. Butch was doing on a Vespa I’ll never know?    This may be a future featured episode on Unsolved Mysteries.  Who gave Mr. Butch the Vespa?    Regardless it’s a sad day in Boston.   So do me a favor when you’re drinking tonight and tip a 40 for Mr. Butch.  And if you're in the mood to cry turn on some Tracy Chapman and visit the www.mrbutchshow.com

As a tribute to Mr. Butch please send us your best Mr. Butch story to randomthoughts@barstoolsports.com

PS - If our source was wrong about this I will kill her...
