In the 80’s, I always heard it was Gene Simmons.

Used to go to festivals in the late 90s/early 2000s and there was ALWAYS a rumor that one of the Chuckle Brothers had died. Or Cliff Richard.

Or Cliff Richard.

Simultaneously the most likely person, and the least likely person to have died at basically any time

The same way that every kid in the 80s knew where the hidden 1-up in level 1-1 of Mario Bros was.

And everyone knew how to draw the "smile" graffiti style "S".

And everyone knew some version of the promotion where you supposedly got free something if you got a Tootsie Pop wrapper with the Indian and the star on it.
