| Biography
There's no mystery concerning the hometown of George Wendt. The heavyset, curly haired actor never misses a talk show opportunity to cheer on his beloved Chicago "Cubbies" or "Da Bears." After theater work in Chicago and New York and a handful of TV appearances on sitcoms like M*A*S*H and Alice, Wendt inaugurated his signature role of burly, unemployed barfly Norm Peterson on TV's long-running Cheers (1983-1993); so far as it can be determined, he still hasn't paid his bar tab, which according to TV Guide totalled up to 64,218 dollars at the end of 11 seasons. In 1994, George Wendt starred in The George Wendt Show, a lampoon of the NPR radio series Car Talk, which lasted about as long as it takes to read this sentence.

- Wendt's grandfather was Tom Howard, a photographer for the Chicago Tribune, who took one of the most famous news photos ever: The surreptitious 1927 picture showing murderess Ruth Snyder at the moment she was being executed in the electric chair at Sing Sing. The photo appeared on the front page of the New York Daily News.
- Has played Norm Peterson on six different shows: "Cheers" (1982), "St. Elsewhere" (1982), "The Tortellis" (1987), "The Simpsons" (1989), "Wings" (1990), and "Frasier" (1993).

He has appeared in episodes of all six series with John Ratzenberger.
- Along with Ted Danson and Rhea Perlman, he is one of only three actors to appear in all 273 episodes of "Cheers" (1982).
- In a tribute George wrote for the Second City book, he said that when he joined Second City, it wasn't directly through the troupe as a performer. He had studied the shows for a while and befriended an employee whom he asked about joining. She told him to show up after a performance one day in the afternoon, which he subsequently did. The stage area was littered with cigarette butts, when the woman handed him a broom and said "Welcome to the theater, kid."
- Is an avid Notre Dame football fan. Always attends the notorious Notre Dame vs. USC game when held in Pasadena, California every two years.
