Rob Hitchcock got roasted.

Friends and former teammates gathered Thursday night at Tim Horton's Field for a roast for the retired tabbie before his Friday night induction into the Tiger-Cats Wall of Fame.

Friday night at halftime of the game against Edmonton, safety Hitchcock becomes just the 24th member of the Tiger-Cats' Wall of Honour at Tim Hortons Field, and the math says it's harder to make the Wall than the Hall.

More former Ticats are in the Canadian Football Hall of Fame, located only a few metres away, than are on the Wall of Honour.

The Ticats take on the Eskimos tonight at Tim Hortons Field.
