Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on October 28, 1970)

Happy Birthday, Rob Hitchcock! From tackling opponents fearlessly for over a decade to leading the Hamilton Tiger-Cats with unshakable grit, you've truly earned your legendary CFL status. Fans still reminisce about those jaw-dropping hits and game-changing interceptions you made during all those memorable seasons in black-and-gold.

Yet today, we can confidently predict there won't be any flags thrown when you're caught holding birthday cake instead of footballs. Enjoy celebrating your special day off the field—you've earned it! Here's hoping this year brings as much excitement (and maybe fewer bruises) than dominating opposing offenses from 1995–2007 did. Celebrate big—cheers to another tre-mendous year ahead!
