You may have heard that Max McGee, the surprise hero of the first Super Bowl (then called the NFL-AFL World Championship Game) died a couple of weeks ago. He was a last minute substitution for an injured Packers receiver and caught two touchdown passes. McGee was hung over from staying out all night and didn't even have his helmet with him on the sideline. Most football fans remember that part. What they may not remember is that Bart Starr, not McGee, was named the game's MVP and won the new Corvette that went with it. "Sure, give the Vette to the $100,000 quarterback instead of the $25,000 receiver," McGee joked.

He died by falling off his roof. What a way to go. Not much of a place for a 75 year old man to be, up on the roof clearing leaves.
