9/25 Today in history1983. Paul Newman died

Today in history 9/25/1983. Paul Newman died from lung cancer, aged 83.

He was more than an a American actor and film director.

Newman was a avid race car driver, entrepreneur and philanthropist.  Even today Newman's Own products pay 100% of net profits and royalties from their product sales go to charities around the world. I actually used Newman's Italian dressing on my salad today. Good stuff.

Paul Newman played Reggie Dunlop in the movie Slap Shot.

Binghamton & local hockey players from the AHL team "Broome Dusters" are intertwined in the story of the cult classic movie Slap Shot.
