Happy Birthday to the legendary Russ Jackson! A quarterback so talented, even opposing defenders secretly asked for autographs mid-tackle. Your incredible career with the Ottawa Rough Riders and Toronto Argonauts made you a Canadian football icon—earning multiple All-Star selections and a permanent spot in our hearts (and Hall of Fame).From your dazzling touchdown passes to those unforgettable Grey Cup victories, you've given fans countless reasons to cheer—and opponents plenty of headaches. May your birthday be filled with as much joy as you brought onto the field; just remember not to spike any cakes today!
Cheers, Russ!
