Joseph "Patrick" Cranshaw, a veteran character actor who unexpectedly attained pop-culture status playing "Blue," the elderly fraternity brother in the hit comedy "Old School," has died. He was 86.
Cranshaw died of natural causes Wednesday at his home in Fort Worth, Texas, said his personal manager, Jeff Ross.
After launching his screen career in 1955 playing a bartender at a dance in the western "Texas Lady," Cranshaw played everything from a bank teller in "Bonnie and Clyde" to a hobo in "Pee-wee's Big Adventure" to the demolition derby owner in "Herbie: Fully Loaded."
