Bonadouchebag: Danny Bonaduce Lies About His Father

A story Danny Bonaduce told frequently on the air is that his father died on his birthday. The day he died, Danny said he was doing his radio show and was told off-air and said, "Huh, he finally got me something for my birthday," then went back to work. I thought the story told a lot about his relationship with his father, and also his own personality. So imagine my shock when I discovered the story was completely bogus. Danny's birthday is August 13. His father died on August 3, 2004. It amazes me that Bonaduce would make up a story about his father's death. What kind of scumbag would do that? Danny Bonaduce, that's who. That, plus Adam Carolla's candid assertion that Danny often made up stories that he told on the air, makes me question everything about the guy.

UPDATE: Originally this post had the dates mixed up (i.e. Danny's birthday August 3, Joseph Bonaduce died August 13). Some people called me out on that. I fixed the dates. The story still applies.

What are you talking about?? Check imdb, check wikipedia, or really any other site. Danny's birthday IS August 13. Sounds like you're the douchebag.

Yeah, I believe he's a liar. He has a bunch of crazy stories, but they frequently asked, "I thought you were in California then..." As for the birth date, it must have been a typo. Wikipedia strikes again.

I got the dates mixed up. Story still applies. The date of his father's death and Danny's birthday are not the same. Douchebag.
