Full House staple Bob Saget was found dead in his Florida hotel room on Sunday, January 9. He was 65 years old.
A statement from the Orange County Sheriff’s Office in Orlando, Florida confirmed the actor and comedian’s passing, “Earlier today, deputies were called to the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes for a call about an unresponsive man in a hotel room. The man was identified as Robert Saget & pronounced deceased on scene. Detectives found no signs of foul play or drug use in this case.”
A cause of death is yet to be determined by the medical examiner.
The man known as “America’s Dad” was in Florida for his comedy tour, with his last tweet reading, “Loved tonight’s show @PV_ConcertHall in Jacksonville. Appreciative audience. Thanks again to @RealTimWilkins for opening. I had no idea I did a 2 hr set tonight. I’m happily addicted again to this shit.”
Saget was famously known as the Tanner patriarch, Danny, in Full House and its Netflix sequel Fuller House, and also famously narrated the voiceover in How I Met Your Mother as an older Ted Mosby.
