The Tiger-Cat Alumni Association is sad to announce the passing of Tiger-Cat Legend and Alumnus Joe Zuger. Joe passed away peacefully at home surrounded by family at the age of 84
Joe joined the Tiger-Cats in 1962 and turned heads immediately when in his first game as the starting quarterback when he threw for a team record 572 passing yards and a league record eight touchdown passes in a 67–21 win over the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
During his first few seasons he also played defensive and punter, where he recorded a 45.5-yard punting average over his career. He became the full-time QB in 1967 when he helped lead the team to a Grey Cup Championship and was named the games MVP.
Joe played 10 years with the Club and won the Grey Cup in 1963, 65 and 67. In 1981, he was appointed as Tiger-Cat General Manager, a position he served for over a decade. Joe has been inducted into the Tiger-Cat Wall of Honour, Walk of Fame and Hamilton Sports Hall of Fame. |
