.............His character was rejected by other fraternities at the fictional Faber College but got into the hard-partying, rule-breaking frat nicknamed Animal House. Bluto -- the house wild man played by John Belushi in his own breakout role -- gave Dorfman the nickname Flounder. A series of mishaps and humiliations followed.
Flounder accidentally killed a horse -- apparently by inducing fright -- by firing a pistol loaded with blanks into the air during a midnight prank in Dean Vernon Wormer's office.
He was also the recipient of one of the movie's most famous lines, delivered by Wormer: "Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son."
I just remember his line, "this is gonna be great". RIP Flounder.
