CUTCHOGUE, N.Y. (TS) — Bill "The Big Whistle" Chadwick, the first U.S.-born official in NHL history who was later a popular broadcaster for the New York Rangers, died Saturday. He was 94.
Play by play dude: "Bill Chadwick has the life, he holds it for 94 years, Bill's been in declining health for a number of years but has had trouble going the distance, but he's on a breakaway now... he's got a great chance here... his son reports it, a family friend confirms it... and HE'S DEEEEEEAAAAAAADDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!"
Colour dude: "That's just an excellent death by Bill, the way he got all his organs to stop working all at once, you could tell he really wanted it."
Bill's contributions to the most pointless sport on earth are legendary.
This is hilarious and true... this guy is considered the leading innovator of hockey reffing, and he was blind in one eye. Sometimes facts are funnier than anything I can come up with.
Chadwick died of natural causes... good for him, bad for us. The next time a hockey ref dies, for the sake of this site, might I recommend:
Being stabbed. (slashing)
Beaten with a baseball bat. (high sticking)
Murdered by a hooker after unknowingly hiring a transvestite: (off side)
Playing hockey: (unnecessary roughness)
Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, good-bye Bill, this is one penalty box you ain't getting out of.
Love,
Chris Real
