I never heard the whole story...wasn't he clean and sober for like 20 something years but relapsed in 2006? Or, did he relapse years before then yet still claimed to be clean but got caught in 06? Any wisdom on this matter or LINKS about it would be helpful, thanks.

Williams was reportedly one of the last people to see John Belushi alive, as they snorted cocaine together.

During the late 1970s and early 1980s, Williams had an addiction to cocaine; he has since quit. Williams was a close friend and frequent partier alongside John Belushi. He says the death of his friend and the birth of his son prompted him to quit drugs

This the one mother fricker that I would love to be seated next to on a 4 hour flight cross country. His comedy is priceless.

Love his comedy. He's hilarious in every comedic role he has played.

I met him in the San Francisco Airport a few years ago, he was waiting for his son and was really cool, just talked to him for a little while.

That goes for just about any comedian from the 70s.

I cant remember what show i was watching, but they said that back in the day, at a particular comedy club, they would let comics know when he was in the audience.

Apparently, he was a joke stealer. Ill look for a link of ya want, but this was a while back.

I find his "comedy" annoying. He's a good dramatic actor, though.
