Also gave us Frisbeetarianism-The philosophy that when you die, your soul goes up on a roof and gets stuck

I'm big into the Ultimate (Frisbee) community and while we typically do not play with a Wham-O brand disc anymore, we do owe a lot to this man's effort to bring Frisbees into the mainstream. Thanks for everything.

Reminds me of "Steady Ed" Headrick, the father of Frisbee golf, whose ashes were pressed into a limited run of discs after his death.<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_golf#.22Steady_Ed.22_Headrick_and_the_growth_of_the_modern_game" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_golf#.22Steady_Ed.22_Headr...</a><p>"One of the discs that contains Headrick's ashes will be permanently placed on the roof of the center. When asked why this was to be done, by a member of the local media, PDGA Executive Director Brian Graham quoted an old Frisbee adage, 'Old Frisbee players are like old Frisbees ... They don't die, they just land up on the roof.'"

You could ask for nothing more than the positive influence over millions that this man had.<p>Not to mention all the people who suddenly had a reason to find out what a roof looks like up close.

I saw this on the news last night. Made me want to run thru Cheeseman barefoot hucking the 'bee' with the Siglin Brahs.

All frisbee-playing dogs in the world have lost a hero.
