Joe Guyon

Hey friends! On the last

episode of the podcast, I wrote a short story on Dave Casper. He was a one of a

kind guy who played with the Raiders, Vikings and Oilers. He was born in

Bemidji, Minnesota, but grew up in the woods of Wisconsin. Don’t take the literally

folks, please. He won a super bowl with the Raiders in 1975 and became the 9th

best tight end in NFL history.

This time, the tale is about an

average Joe from White Earth, Minnesota. He grew up in the same era as Jim

Thorpe, played fullback on offense and sideback on defense. Later, the position

was renamed to defensive halfback according to him.

This, is, Pigskin Tales. The

story of Joe, “Big Chief” Guyon.
