Death at Dickson Oval??

I remember one quite a few years ago where someone died in the middle of Garran oval one night. From memory, they were having a drunken nap. Unfortunately it was about -6 overnight and the beer coat just wasn’t quite warm enough. I concede the story I heard may just be a friend of a friend of a friend said….

That’s actually what sprang into my mind, too. Someone who’d ingested some substances and for whom the ambulance didn’t come.

Sadly, I live for trivia like this. Washboard Hank is now lasered into the febrile synapses of my brain forever!
