Rip Torn who was featured in the NTRA ads which featured the catch phrase "Go Baby Go", has died at the age of 88.
(I was unable to find the ads on Youtube)

He has been in acting since 1956.
Many may remember him as Zed from Men In Black or Patches O'Houlihan from Dodgeball.
I loved him in the 1985 John Candy movie Summer Rental where he played Scully.

Though normally a complementary piece, he was good in just about everything. Loved his LBJ.
