Frank McGuigan is a former Gaelic footballer who played for the Ardboe O'Donnovan Rossa club and the Tyrone county team.
Despite his playing career being cut short by a car crash, which broke his leg, he is considered a legend in Tyrone football,[according to whom?]
Against local rivals Armagh, McGuigan scored eleven of Tyrone's points from open play - five on each foot, and one fisted over.
Days before receiving his All Star, McGuigan was involved in an horrific car crash that threatened, not only his playing career, but his life.
He felt his own award was cheapened by accusations that it was a "sympathy vote," and after his son, Brian was overlooked in the 2005 honours, his opinion was strengthened.
