RIP IWIHooligan

Posted on October 23 2012, 10:01am | Author: R* X | Filed Under: Social Club

Some very sad news has come to our attention in that longtime community member IWIHooligan has recently passed away.

IWIHooligan was a dedicated and active member of the Social Club - a huge fan of titles like The Warriors and GTAIV as he led The  Warriors Gang Crew - a regular commenter here at the Newswire and attendee of multiplayer events - and was talented in his own right as a video editor as a former winner of one of our Video Editor Contests for his piece, "I Walk Alone" (you can also read a nice interview with him that fansite GTAAddict conducted in 2011).

We know that many of you here at the Social Club were mates of his - we'll all miss his voice and presence here and we'd like to take this time to remember him and to offer our deepest condolences to all of his family and friends.

        My brother once played against him on The Warriors. He was sad to know this.
        RIP Hooligan, a Warrior 'til death.

                R.I.P. [W]Hooligan.
                I remember playing against you and your gang in GTA:Tournament (SA-MP server) as well as in Partyserver back in 2006 and 2007, with ziggy etc.

                  I made this GTA IV video in memory of our brother Hooligan:

                  He will never be forgotten! We miss you man!

                  Also, my brother Phrost also made this amazing and touching tribute to honour Hooligan's memory:

                              RIP! I never thought I would hear about a former clan member's death on Rockstar Games website out of all places.. Very shocking indeed. I remember talking to Hooligan when he first launched the Warriors Gang for unofficial SA-MP mod on PC back in 2006. We used to own so much back then. Hooligan even sent me another email this past May, after a 5 year absence from his clan. He wanted me to join him again for The Warriors Gang on the Social Club. I told him I'd love to rejoin if GTA V got a PC release, it's a shame he never got to see that day.. :/

                              RIP Hooligan! Won't forget you!
