Walter Gretzky boy. What a great human being. I remember meeting him in the mid 90’s in Brantford. We played in the Walter Gretzky tournament. That man made a point of showing up to each an every game, greeting parents greeting kids. We’re talking A level hockey here. 25 years later I took my stepson to Walters tournament and sure as shit that old fella was there greeting these young kids and their families. What a fucking Canadian treasure.

But his dad is one the most Canadian Canadians you’ll meet. I love them both but Wayne is just they legend born of a myth.

The Gretzky's were superstars in Brantford, not just because of Wayne's skill but for how much they gave back to the city. I remember when Mama Gretzy's perogy recipe was printed in the Brantford Expositor, my own mom was so excited to try it! Walter was always willing to appear and help out at charity events. I went to high school with two of Wayne's younger brothers.

Well Wayne took an overnight flight went to a brunch and spent the whole day playing hockey with my buddies son and all of his friends. Wayne got made at gis publicist when she was pressuring him to leave. His response was legendary. "he said that the day when I put a hockey game over the life of this Godly young person is the day I will quit hockey."

I was driving through Brantford on my way to Hamilton while listening to this. My Mom was one of Walter's nurses when he had a stroke. He came to my parents house after my Mom retired and brought her flowers. Makes you want to be a better human. 👍👍

Just a beautiful memory about the true legend Walter Gretzky, I used to work at the McDonald's Wayne was talking about and Walter would not only stop in at least twice a day to pick up breakfast and food then drive to distribute the food to people, he would often stay for hours and sign autographs and take picture with people who were stopping in from all over Ontario for hockey tournaments and he LOVED to sing for the employees and regulars. Just a beautiful soul ❤️ That man, is loved by all of Canada 🇨🇦 THANK YOU THEO

Phil Hartman is also from Brantford, Ontario. As someone who was born and raised in Brantford (and still lives here), Gretzky was always such a big deal and the face of our town really. Even with me having little interest in sports and zero interest in hockey, he was always someone to be proud of and admire. With seeing this podcast, though, he appears to be a nicer and better human than I could ever imagine him being. Also, Theo ending the podcast with "you kind of scored all your goals on the ice" ... he never ceases to amaze me! I couldn't have enjoyed this watch anymore than I did.

I remember going out of a dressing room after winning the silver stick championship in Pelham, my Dad walked me over to a super nice older guy who said he liked the way I played and that he’s seen a few of our games. My father in the car ride home told me that it was Walter Gretzky, I couldn’t believe he didn’t tell me who he was before hand! Still can’t over 15 years later lol. Rest in peace Walter, I’ll never forget how nice meeting you in person was. ❤🇨🇦

This is one role model that I had as a kid that has never let me down. I grew up in Northern Ontario and I used to watch all of the games, That team they had in Edmonton was stacked, that was some of the best hockey I have ever watched. I do not think Wayne will ever have an equal. He was an amazing player, he was also a great person off the ice and gave a lot back to the sport, maybe more than anyone else. My favorite moment was when Canada won at the Olympics in 2002 with one of the best teams ever put together.

You said at one point you were trying to think of other things that were neat... how about talking about another Canadian hero who is as big of a hero as Gretzky... Terry Fox. Sad story but one of greatness and inspiration. We Canucks love Terry as much, if not more, than 99! You are a beautiful gift too, Theo❤ hugs from🇨🇦PEI🇨🇦
