I will miss my friend and the one who motivated me to start my own channel. Prayers to you and your family brother. R.I.P Chris, better known as “Gold & Blue Dude.”
I'm glad to hear you call GBD your friend, because he is the one who told me about your channel. When I first found him he was sitting behind a desk, wearing a tie, and talking about football. I have to admit I did not always agree with what he had to say, but I always respected his opinion. Thelma (my wife) thought he looked just like our grandson, so she gifted him her Tennessee SEC Championship coke and got me to gift him a Georgia National Championship coke. We are going to miss him. I hope his family does not take his channel down so that we all can still check in from time to time. Rest easy Chris, we love you!
Wow. He cranked out videos like no one I’ve seen before. It’s amazing he was able to do that while being as sick as he was. Rest in Peace GBD! Can’t wait to see you heaven!
RIP Gold and Blue Dude. You were a staple in our home. You brought so much joy to my fiancée and I through your videos. We loved watching your content as it was something we bonded over. You helped prepare me for coming to WVU for school. I wouldn’t be the same without you. My heart and prayers go to your family. We Mountaineers sticks together…no matter what. You will be forever be a WVU sports legend and live on through your family members. We love you, Gold and Blue Dude.
I will miss him I am a KSU fan but respect West Virginia. He made me feel excited for what was new with college News. I will miss seeing Blue Gold Dude with his videos, I will pray for your family. I cannot imagine your pain you are going through but hope that his high energy and love for college will live on.
I am devastated to hear of his passing. He was a true showman and the embodiment of what college football really is. I watched every video he ever posted. Chris has been in my life every day for the past 3 years. I would listen to his videos every day on the way to work, in my living room and with friends and on my last deployment. I don’t think a single day has gone by in the past year where I haven’t heard his voice. He always put a smile on my face and new perspective in my mind. There is a little bit of gold and blue in all of us thinking of Chris. In the words of his friend Couz’s Corner “Cue Country Roads”
Never gonna forget g&b dude! May he rest in peace and prayers for his family. I'm gonna miss his videos. His passion for cfb and college sports felt like I was talking to a friend I never had.
I am thankful for the times GBD helped me relax after a long day at work with his fun and thoughtful college football commentary. I am so sorry of your family's loss. Hat, check. Sunglasses, check. Pepsi, check. Notes, check. Sources, check. Think skin, check. A life well lived and his burdens laid down, check. RIP
I am so very sorry to learn of GBD’s passing. He was my favorite and I so enjoyed his posts. He will be missed and I am glad he now rests in heaven, in God’s eternal care.
Such a beautiful tribute. I had the privilege of meeting Chris at the Slob Olympics this year. He was such a wonderful guy. You will be missed GBD. My condolences to your family.
As a college football fan… This one hurts… I watched his channel grow from a small channel to one of the top CF UA-camrs and was really cheering for him. RIP Dude
Oh my gosh! I love him sooo much! I was wondering why UA-cam wasn't showing more of his videos in my suggestions. I never miss. Thick skin is not a check on this one. This just got to me! My heart goes out to his family!
Oh my goodness this breaks my heart so much! Such a great fan and an even greater guy. I’ve prayed for his family and loved ones. With love from all of Baylor nation.
Gold & Blue Dude has been my favorite podcast show for the past 8-9 months. He covered just about every possible scenario in the subject of college realignment. Always very entertaining, which has always been his goal. Now he's doing his favorite thing in Heaven, entertaining the saints. RIP my friend. You will be greatly missed.
Im so sorry for your loss man. He was a great man and content creator! You could tell he really had a passion for college football. Rest in peace Chris!!!
I am broken hearted for Chris's family, fiance, loved ones. I had no clue he was so sick. He presented himself with such excitement with everything he has done. He's built a heck of a channel and had such a tremendous show. God Bless you pal, we shall see you one day in Heaven, I cannot wait to discuss the craziness of the sport we all love. College Football. God Bless one and all, and may God Bless, Comfort and care for everyone in these challenging times. May God Bless You All.
Oh no😮😢 damn man, my heart goes out to his family, friends and all of us that truly enjoyed watching and interacting with him. May God bless his soul and rest in peace
What a punch in the gut. Looking forward to a new video today only to be brought back to reality. RIP GBD, had no idea about your health which reflects your talent and commitment to the daily entertainment you brought to me and so many others. Prayers to your family and loved ones.
Prayers for your family. I have a close family member who suffered a bout of sepsis that came on very suddenly and came very close to finishing her off. Condolences, and I am glad that Chris had a shot at the end to do what he loved doing.
USC fan here. I happened upon your brothers’s channel around the time of conference realignment. I found him tremendously entertaining and insightful. As a college football fan, I found him a kindred spirit, that loved his team. I often tuned into to his channel for the past several years and was never disappointed. I know my words likely don’t provide much consolation. However, I feel the need to express my appreciation for your brothers talent and love for his team. He was truly great and I will miss tuning into his college football insights. The next time I see WVU on TV, I’ll certainly be thinking of him. My condolences. Please know your brother was truly appreciated even by rival fans. To me that is truly special.
I will always remember G&B Dude's energy, enthusiasm, and ability to connect with you as if he was in your room, just talking one on one. May Chris's memory be a blessing to all he touched. Chris, you will be sorely missed.
BYU fan here, watched his Vedic’s everyday to better understand the Big12!! Will miss seeing every day. My best to all of the family, God be with you!!
Today, missing Gold and Blue Dude. He would have had some awesome takes on all the school/conference moves today. I hope GBD's family and loved ones are coping with his absence.
Rest in peace from a Kstate alumn. I enjoyed watching his videos and coverage of the the Big 12. He was a great guy, and he’s made a legacy for himself. He will be remembered by so many!
I am so sorry to hear of his passing! I wondered why we hadn't seen a recent video! I am praying that his family finds peace in this difficult time. He seemed like a real cool guy. May he rest in peace.
Wow, stunned. Didn't know about his health history. My condolences and sympathies to his entire family. From a Blue and Gold Domer☘, RIP GBD, you went way too young. 🙏 ✝️
Such a sad day for those of us who love college sports. He had such a passion for what he did and we will miss his enthusiasm and spunk more than he will even know.
RIP GBD. I knew you were sick and I was always impressed with how hard you worked. I kind of thought you were way out there until I realized you were a lot smarter than you put off. Damn, I didn't think a UA-camrs death would effect me but he's been part of my daily watches for at least a year now. Don't worry dude, I'll always come back and watch your videos from time to time. Your memory will not be forgotten.
I came by today to pay my respects to a channel I loved watching. It's been a year since he passed, but his memory lives on for those who knew him and those who watched his videos. You will always be missed, GBD!
My prayers to the family. Our lives here are short and we need to live them for our heavenly father. I really appreciated Chris’ fervor and how he made so many videos each day despite the pain.
Shocking and tragic loss. I enjoyed his channel and his take on college sports & will miss him. Grace & Peace to all who loved him. --A Sooner from Austin, Texas. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I was enormously entertained by Chris' conference realignment theories and it was clear he put his heart into calculating every possible scenario. I want to say thank you for providing me hours of entertainment and a reprieve from the craziness of everyday life. I never knew you, but I listened daily as if we were long time friends. You will be missed. Rest in Peace GBD
My thoughts and prayers are with your family. GBD will most definitely be sorely missed. GBD was a true blue blood for college football. Blessings from the Sooner Nation may the most high comfort you in this time of mourning God Bless you.
I am so sorry. With all the conference realignment happening I was looking forward to his videos. I had no idea he was unwell, and that shows how strong he was. RIP Chris.
I recently became a fan of this channel a few months ago and enjoyed tuning in for his conference realignment videos. It was truly his passion and was fun to watch. On behalf of my KSU Wildcats, Rest in Peace Gold and Blue Dude. 🙏
Man I am sorry. I found him during the ou texas SEC news. He really worked hard on this channel. I'm shocked😢GBD was a super fan. Much love Boomer Sooner
I’m a UCF fan, saw gold and blues videos a few years back when diving down the rabbit hole looking for UCF football related content. Would often stop to watch a video or two of his just for fun. With UCF going to the big 12 I started watching his videos even more especially within the last few months just enjoying his content. He was so creative and you could feel his passion for the work and the community he built on here. This is truly heart breaking. Prayers being sent to your guys family. Thank you for the update and shedding some light on Chris’s story. Proves how great of a guy and how tough he was, something we could all feel simply through his videos. Thank you so much Chris for all the great entertainment and great attitude you put out into this world you’re truly going to be missed. Gonna be rooting for WV going forward thinking about you. Rest up bud🖤
Sorry for your loss and his passing is turely a loss for us that were his subscribers. I had lost track of him during the off season but I realize sometime was wrong when the season started and he wasn't popping up. We miss him greatly but now he is truly Home, May God Bless His Soul.
Thank you for your tribute to your brother, our Gold and Blue Dude. You could tell and he wore his hat on his sleeve. I, and many others are much better for having been a little part of his life. Thank you.
I always thought Gold and Blue Dude was such a great ambassador for West Virginia. Like so many from"The Mountain State" he left for better opportunity ....or at least that is my understanding of his story. Living in North Carolina as I do there are scores of thousands from WV living here and just like Chris they still hold a passion for their home state. Instead of "Almost Heaven" Chris is in Heaven with His Lord Jesus.
I'm so sorry to hear this. Such a young man. So much energy. I never knew he was sick. We never know how much time we have. As a Clemson fan I appreciate Chris sticking to his guns (West Virginia) even though he lived in Clemson territory. I wish I could have known him in life. This is certainly unexpected news. My prayers to his family. 🙏
I’m stunned. I only discovered his channel recently, and he quickly became one of my favorite UA-cam personalities. My deepest sympathy to you and your family. 💔💔💔💔
Chris Petry GBD you will surely be missed . I'm so happy he Rededicated his life to Christ a few months ago . So sorry for your family's loss . Me and my wife loved his channel . I will never forget that Pick Six vs VT last fall. He went from pacing to 🎉 jumping up and down . Love you GBD
From a Baylor Bear fan, I've recently started watching his channel. I found the entertaining and news worth. I could tell he worked hard to put on a great product. I am dearly sorry for your loss but was so glad to learn that he was a Christian. GOD has already healed him and we know that. He will be missed by many down here on earth.
G&B brought me a lot of smiles and laughs. I always appreciated his interaction and responses to my comments. He was genuinely a passionate and enthusiastic fan and he will be greatly missed. Rest in peace my friend and may god help your family find comfort in their time of mourning.
I'm saddened to hear about the sudden passing of G&B Dude. He was full of life, entertaining, and one of my favorite college football channels. Praying for his fiance', his family, and friends. He will be missed!
God bless brother. In Christ there is peace. You’re home and with our Heavenly Father and there is no greater joy. You always pulled for my BYU Cougars and that’s why I enjoyed tuning into you! “God be with you ‘til we meet again”.
Omg. My condolences to y’all.his videos were entertaining and he absolutely showed love for his craft. Thanks for the memories and may he rest in peace.
Wow. Just wow. I NEVER would've guessed Chris was in such a physical state. He was always the most energetic person I watched every day and also one of the most consistent uploaders. He truly lived his life to the fullest until his last breath. I am in shock. I wasn't subscribed to him for long, but during the time I was, he never made me regret subscribing and never ceased to entertain me. You're gone way too soon; you were arguably in the prime of your life at age 40. I've watched this channel during its greatest period of growth and like Will said, all that support really helped him through the pain. Rest in peace GBD, I hope you receive an infinite amount of mini helmets beyond the pearly gates.
Will your brother was nothing but a kind and genuine man. We were fortunate to have him on our show once and talking to him was a blast. He inspired us on some videos we did and seeing this comment section we weren't the only ones. Chris definitely left his mark here and his memory and legacy will be hard to forget. Our prayers are with all of you.
My name is Ray. I went to Liberty HS and know Amanda and I thought it was SO COOL to find out that I live so close to Chris and we both do the same thing on here primarily (college football content). Unfortunately, I was hanging my channel ambitions up around the time he was REALLY putting in the work, and so we never had the opportunity to collaborate like we spoke about and wanted to. My heartfelt and sincere condolences go out to his family and his circle. This was beautifully delivered and you did your brother great justice, man. If I can be of assistance with anything or in any way, please don't hesitate to reach out. One off the top idea for the channel moving forward, but whatever you guys go with I'm sure will make him proud...maybe gather a large group of content creators who contribute to the channel as a whole. That way creators don't have to take too much time off their own channel, but the G&B Dude channel can stay alive and thrive. Maybe like 15 creators who contribute one video every other week (30 pieces of content monthly). Just an idea from my creator, analytical mind...but NONE OF THIS is important right now. My prayers are with you all and I know God will heal those who need it most in this moment.
Wow this is unbelievable I found his channel a little over a year ago and I grew to love the content that he provided RIP GOLD AND BLUE DUDE you will be missed 😢
I will miss my friend and the one who motivated me to start my own channel. Prayers to you and your family brother. R.I.P Chris, better known as “Gold & Blue Dude.”
I'm crying I liked him wish I could have met him
😢😢😢

I’m grieving with you there brother. Such an awful feeling to lose someone like gbd. He was an amazing person
He was my first sub and the first person to come onto my panel and im trying not to cry. He was a good friend
Loved your banter with him.
It’s okay to cry brother, I did.
Wow. He cranked out videos like no one I’ve seen before. It’s amazing he was able to do that while being as sick as he was. Rest in Peace GBD! Can’t wait to see you heaven!
Amen!
The kindest human being I've ever met. Thank you for being my friend. Rest easy... 💔
Life is so fragile. Somehow we need to hang in there with hopes and love. RIP GBD.

Never gonna forget g&b dude! May he rest in peace and prayers for his family. I'm gonna miss his videos. His passion for cfb and college sports felt like I was talking to a friend I never had.
I am speechless. Chris was a good conversationalist and very kind man. I am in shock. My condolences to the Petry family.
I am thankful for the times GBD helped me relax after a long day at work with his fun and thoughtful college football commentary. I am so sorry of your family's loss. Hat, check. Sunglasses, check.

This is heartbreaking. Rest in peace GBD Chris. Your work was always extremely entertaining.

Rest up high on the Blue Ridge Mountain.
Prayers! He will be missed, and for one I will miss watching his videos. God Bless you and your family!
Will truly be missed, isn't the same without him ❤

Prayers for the family and mountaineers nation
Wow. Just wow. I NEVER would've guessed Chris was in such a physical state. He was always the most energetic person I watched every day and also one of the most consistent uploaders. He truly lived his life to the fullest until his last breath. I am in shock. I wasn't subscribed to him for long, but during the time I was, he never made me regret subscribing and never ceased to entertain me. You're gone way too soon; you were arguably in the prime of your life at age 40. I've watched this channel during its greatest period of growth and like Will said, all that support really helped him through the pain. Rest in peace GBD, I hope you receive an infinite amount of mini helmets beyond the pearly gates.
He will be missed. I really enjoyed his content. My prayers go out to his family.
It is with a heavy heart that I offer my condolence during your time of bereavement
Will your brother was nothing but a kind and genuine man. We were fortunate to have him on our show once and talking to him was a blast. He inspired us on some videos we did and seeing this comment section we weren't the only ones. Chris definitely left his mark here and his memory and legacy will be hard to forget. Our prayers are with all of you.
My name is Ray. I went to Liberty HS and know Amanda and I thought it was SO COOL to find out that I live so close to Chris and we both do the same thing on here primarily (college football content).
Unfortunately, I was hanging my channel ambitions up around the time he was REALLY putting in the work, and so we never had the opportunity to collaborate like we spoke about and wanted to.
My heartfelt and sincere condolences go out to his family and his circle. This was beautifully delivered and you did your brother great justice, man. If I can be of assistance with anything or in any way, please don't hesitate to reach out.
One off the top idea for the channel moving forward, but whatever you guys go with I'm sure will make him proud...maybe gather a large group of content creators who contribute to the channel as a whole. That way creators don't have to take too much time off their own channel, but the G&B Dude channel can stay alive and thrive. Maybe like 15 creators who contribute one video every other week (30 pieces of content monthly). Just an idea from my creator, analytical mind...but NONE OF THIS is important right now.
My prayers are with you all and I know God will heal those who need it most in this moment.
I will miss him forever one of the best guys I have know this really hurts my heart I will miss you buddy.
Wow this is unbelievable I found his channel a little over a year ago and I grew to love the content that he provided RIP GOLD AND BLUE DUDE you will be missed 😢
You made me smile and laugh. Sometimes you made me roll my eyes. RIP Gold and Blue Dude. 💔
