Vigoda died in 2016 at the age of 94 in his sleep. It should be noted that prior to his actual death, Vigoda was a constant victim of celebrity death hoaxes, perhaps the most famous being in 1982 when ''People'' magazine mistakenly referred to Vigoda as dead, running a premature obituary, to the point a website, https://abevigoda.com, was set up simply to inform his status. Vigoda for his part took the death hoaxes with good humor, posing for a photograph published in ''Variety'' in which he was sitting up in a coffin, holding the erroneous issue of ''People''.
