Friday the 13th, in September of 1957 was the date that Rich Diefenbaker, cousin of Prime Minister John Diefenbaker and starting quarterback for the university of Ottawa was gruesomely killed while touring a meat packing plant. A safety rail failed and Rich fell twenty feet into a grinder and was made into hotdogs.
Now, every time an Ottawa football game falls on Friday the 13th, it's said that when you bite into a stadium hotdog you can hear Rich cry out in terror and then agony, as he is transformed into a delicious wiener.
I swear, it's true! One of the my teammates, Jeff “Porkins” McKenzie used to celebrate every victory with a whole pack of hotdogs. One such victory was on the 13th, and I swear, with each dog he devoured, you could hear those terrifying screams. On an unrelated note, Jeff tragically died of a massive coronary failure, after only two seasons with the team.
