Did Pat Morita really know karate?

If so, what style? What happened to him anyway? Is he still alive? Thanks in advance.

Pat Morita’s HAPPY DAYS character “Arnold” taught judo for one episode. Ritchie couldn’t pick it up, but Joannie was throwing Ritchie all over the place. :stuck_out_tongue:

I don’t get mad.
