Gordon Blickstead was born and raised in the Irish immigrant neighborhood of Griffintown in Montreal, Quebec. He was the proud son of Charles, the city's Fire Chief.

As a 20-something bon-vivant, he began crooning jazz standards in smokey Montreal nightclubs under the name 'Sonny Columbo.' An impressive crooner, Sonny outshone Tony Bennett when they appeared on a 1957 CBC-TV special.

In the early 60's, Gordon retired his 'Sonny' persona for the practical job of teacher at Resurrection School in Montreal where he coached a 2nd string football team of varsity squad rejects to a winning record.

After a sabbatical on the beaches of Florida, Gordon began a career in radio during which he and colleague 'Auggie' began a close friendship until Gordon's death from cancer in August 2002.

Gordon most enjoyed a cold beer, a warm barstool and the Football Pool.

Despite his brief coaching success he was no more saavy at making picks than the rest of us. But, he'd no doubt get a bigger kick out of knowing that Sonny Columbo lives on through our Pool award!

Cheers, old friend.
