87 years old (Born on August 02, 1937)
Happy Birthday to the legendary Billy Cannon! You sprinted into history books with your unforgettable 1959 Heisman Trophy win at LSU, leaving defenders dizzy and fans cheering wildly. Your Halloween night punt return against Ole Miss still gives opponents nightmares!Inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2008, you've proven that greatness never fades—it just gets better over time (like fine wine or classic game highlights). Today we celebrate you: a timeless champion whose legacy continues inspiring generations. May this birthday bring as much joy as those thrilling touchdowns brought Tiger Stadium crowds—minus all that running around!
