[edit] Biographical Information
Ted Goulait was known as "Snooze Goulait" to his family as he suffered from a form of narcolepsy. He would be talking to someone and then put his head down and snore, then in a matter of seconds, he would awaken and finish his train of thought.
He played in one game for the New York Giants in 1912 then served in World War I in his ancestral country of France (although the Goulet family arrived in Michigan via Canada). After the War, he worked in Lansing, MI as an employee of the Michigan legislature. He is listed as a sergeant at arms in the State convention to ratify the 21st amendment to the Constitution in 1933, which repealed prohibition.
