If you remember the old Baltimore Colts from the 50's and 60's, you'll have no problem fondly remembering Arty. Never missed an opportunity to crack a joke or some other attempt to make you smile, he will be missed. RIP Art, don't hit them to hard.

The soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, and the cartridge box.

I remember seeing him on Carson and other shows...stories of the old days and the crap they used to say and do...hilarious.  He reminded me of my father and uncle's when the get together and talk, filter-free, Walt Kowalski-like, just honest guys shootin' the breeze and remembering the old days.
