Will he be missed? Yup-Yup
November 13, 2007 by Mike CasazzaSad news to pass along. Henry Drosky passed away Monday. He was 85. That might not mean anything to you until you realize he was better known as the Yup-Yup Man.
And if you’ve spent any time in Morgantown and never heard of the Yup-Yup Man before, you probably know who he is now. Â Just think…
Drosky was long known for working his way around town and West Virginia University sporting events speaking to himself and repeating his catchphrase. Every now and then, he’d throw in a “Nope, nope” if he didn’t agree with something he’d just seen or heard. He was particularly visible in the 1980s and 1990s, typically with a beverage in one hand and a radio in the other. May he rest in peace.
