Fans are praying for Tommy Chong, of “Cheech & Chong” fame, as he faces his latest battle with cancer.

The marijuana maven who created best-selling stoner comedy albums and eight movies with partner Cheech Marin could barely stand last weekend at the Las Vegas Hempfest, where he was given a lifetime achievement award.

Prayers for Tommy Chong, he made me and my friends laugh so much back in the day.

6. He inspired a LOT of bikers with that character.....

He made it cool to be into Harleys and wear the gear and still be a peace loving hippie type.

7. Love his real life character just as much, or even more.

A great human being! I wish him freedom from pain and suffering, and wish him all the best. He was a landmark personality in this world.

8. My best to Tommy Chong

May your journey be loving and as comfortable as possible with friends and family at your side.

9. Stay strong

To 1/2 of a very powerful comedic team that impacted so many of us - my first exposure in junior high in 1973 (I still have my 45 and cover sleeve) -

This was the perfect parody routine for the 7th grade set in a city where half the kids were in Parochial schools. Tommy has the support of many.

12. I wish Tommy every best wish I can muster.

I immediately thought of Sister Mary and have played it several times today. 40+ years on, it's still brilliant.

15. A shame but I have that memorized!

Have to give some kudos to Dr. Demento for getting their stuff out there too!

10. So terrible to hear :-(

[malaise]

11. Sending good vibes

Damn he was such a part of our laughter.

13. Tommy is a very sweet man who is so unassuming in his work that it is easy to discount his genius

He is extremely funny, kind of heart and loyal. But that rumpled and confused seeming man also co-wrote and then directed several feature films. A hero of the medical cannabis movement both as Tommy and as 'that guy' he played so well.
Love the guy. A man of good will. Best to Tommy and to Shelby and all their family.

14. prayers and best wishes, tommy.
