He also had memorable roles in 'Happy Gilmore' and 'Back to the Future II.'

Veteran actor Joe Flaherty, best known for starring in the popular Canadian sketch comedy series SCTV and as Harold Weir on Paul Feig’s Freaks and Geeks, has died. Flaherty spent eight years on the hit sketch show, performing characters like Big Jim McBob, Guy Cabellero, Vic Arpeggio, and Count Floyd/Floyd Robertson. This included the crazed “Jackass!”-yelling fan who secretly works for antagonist Shooter McGavin in Happy Gilmore and the postal worker who delivers Doc Brown’s 70-year-old letter to Marty McFly in Back to the Future Part II.
