There's this guy here that does cheesy TV ads for Indian-owned casinos in the area. I was making fun of him the other day, and several UW grads jumped down my throat with "Hey, man, that's Sonny Sixkiller you're talking about".

Evidently, he was a fairly decorated QB for the Huskies in the early 70's.

Awesome name.

I am surprised you haven't heard his name before.....I used to hear it all the time when I lived in Tacoma. He also calls the Huskies games on the radio I believe.
