LMAO IT'S NOT TIM HORTON COFFEE (RETIRED NHL PLAYER)
A LITTLE TIBIT ABOUT MR. TIM HORTON FORMER NHL HOCKEY STAR
His name towers over thousands of highway exits and strip malls, a beacon to weary travellers, drowsy office drones, scrambling minivan moms and all others in need of a caffeine-and-sugar jolt. He isn't remembered for Stanley Cups, dramatic goals or anything else that happened on the ice. But Tim Horton ranks with Henderson, Howe, Orr, Hull, Richard and Number 99 as one of Canada's most famous hockey players. If the true measure of fame is name recognition, Horton might be at the top of the list.
His NHL career spanned 22 seasons and landed him in the Hockey Hall of Fame. But a steady defenseman, no matter how dominant, enjoys limited celebrity. The climb to iconic status began in 1964 when he and a partner opened the "Tim Horton Donut Drive-in" in Hamilton, Ontario. By the time Horton died a decade later the business had expanded to 35 shops. Today there are over 2,200 "Tim Hortons" outlets in Canada and the northeastern U.S.
