Remembering Chris Farley, Gone On This Day In 1997

Hard to believe it's been 27 years since we lost funnyman and former SNL star Chris Farley. Farley suffered from obesity for much of his life and at the time of his death, weighed 296 pounds. He began abusing alcohol and illicit drugs early in his career, with his addictions resulting in repeated suspensions from Saturday Night Live. On December 18, 1997, he was found dead by his younger brother, John, in his apartment in the John Hancock Center in Chicago.An autopsy later revealed that Farley had died of an overdose of cocaine and morphine 

As we remember the comedian here's one of his best moments, that time he welcomed Sir Paul McCartney to the Chris Farley Show. Needless to say, it was awesome.
