The American-born Lancaster, who made a name for himself with the CFL, is considered an icon by sports lovers everywhere. Mr. Lancaster was a beloved sports figure for roughly half a century. He was a legend even before his passing.
He broke into the league with the Ottawa Rough Riders in 1960, and three years later joined Saskatchewan, where he spent 16 years, leading the Roughriders to their first-ever Grey Cup title in 1966. He was the CFL's outstanding player in 1970 and '76.
He also had a lengthy coaching career with Saskatchewan, Edmonton and Hamilton, winning two Grey Cups while on the sidelines.
