Let's make this birthday one to remember.

71 years old (Born on March 08, 1954)

Happy Birthday to Tom Newton, a running back whose agility and strength dazzled NFL crowds from 1977 through 1982! You sprinted your way into the hearts of football fans everywhere, breaking tackles with style that makes today's fantasy leagues jealous. Rumor has it defenses are still catching their breath after watching highlights from your glory days.

As you celebrate another lap around life's field today, remember: age is just a number—and for someone who spent career Sundays dodging linebackers like they owed him lunch money—this one's easy. Wishing you plenty of laughter and joy this birthday—you've earned every yard!
