NFT: RIP Richard "Old Man" Harrison...

The "Old Man" from Pawn Stars died at the age of 77 (he seemed a lot older than that).

I like the show and thought his character was a good balance to the obnoxious Big Hoss and Chumley.

Dude always seemed so crotchety.

Wasn't ever sure what was an act, and not. But he probably saw some crap, working in that business all those years.

RIP to the Old Man.

Yeah, I'm pretty surprised he wasn't older

I thought he was well into his 80s when the show started a decade (or whenever) ago.

His age is alarming

that show is about a decade old and he seemed 80 already when it first aired.

RIP Sir.

Crusty,but entertaining.
Condolences to the family.

Always felt the same about Sparky Anderson...

He looked 50 when he was 30. When he died I thought for sure he was close to 100. Instead, he was in his mid-70s.

I would have bet good money that Harrison was well into his late '80s.

Crusty and a cheapskate

Can I get

"Chumly." RIP

77?!?!

I thought he was mid nineties easily. Wow.

I believe he had battled Parkinson's for some time

I would have guessed he was older as well.

I thought he was much older also.

Yeah he seemed "crotchety" at times but, I also think he had that "Old Vegas Gambler" cool to him.

A Doyle Brunson type ... RIP Mr. Harrison.

Cant believe

he was only 77 so he was in his late 60s when the show started I would never have guessed it. How old is Rick?
