One of Addotta’s last Facebook posts this month showed his sometimes bizarre sense of humor.
Addotta wrote, “An elderly couple is walking along when a pigeon flys [sic] over and drops one right on the old lady’s head. She says oh my god, get me some toilet paper. He says, what the hell for, he’s a half mile away by now!”
He captured his career in the autobiography, “Confessions of a Comedian.”
