The forgotten feats of Twinkletoes

Hanson became a Canadian sports hero in 1935 when he led the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to victory over the Hamilton Tigers by a score of 18-12. It was the first time that a western team had defeated an eastern one. Hanson died on Feb 14, 1996. Sadly, there was little media coverage of his death.
