https://blueseum.org/Thomas+McCracken

"We wonder how many members of the Old Brigade will remember "Shook the Sheep" McCracken, who came across from Victoria with the Carlton team to play Norwood for the championship of Adelaide in 1893 or 4. McCracken on visiting the city was struck by the unintelligent look of Adelaide's then notoriously fat policemen and made a bet that he would steal a sheep from a butcher's shop and run with it along the principal street - Rundle street - almost from one end to the other, without hindrance from any policeman. McCracken "shook" the sheep right enough and won his bet, and Adelaide policemen were subjected to a merciless chaffing for a long time afterwards.
McCracken was big red-headed fireman who was killed afterwards by injuries received at the big Bijou Theatre fire in Melbourne."
(WA Sportsman June 04 1915 p5)
