Poor Norton seemed to have a good career going, he was in the first picks for Middenhiem Madmen as one of the fresh teams lineman. He took the field for that first preoffesional game with confidence, letting all the sensations overwhelm him. But late in the first half, something went horribly wrong. He stood there, prepared to take on the Norse lineman Mar Fist, when he discovered how Mar earned his name. A hard punch to the gut knocked all the air from his lungs, but Mar didn't stop there. He used the punch to heft Norton up, then over the fence and into the blood frenzied fans of the Norse team. It took several hours for the coach of shuffling downfield to find every piece of Norton, but he had enough to pull him back together and finish out the last zombie needed for his team.

Norton died on Oct 25, 2005
