John Candy will be remembered this season by the Toronto Argonauts, the CFL team he owned along with Wayne Gretzky and Bruce McNall. The team announced its players will wear embroidered gold crests in the shape of a Hollywood star with Candy’s initials on their uniforms.
The comedic actor, who became a part owner of the team in February 1991, died March 4 of a heart attack while filming a movie in Mexico. The Canada native was 43.
His mother, Van Candy, will perform the ceremonial coin toss of the season opener.
