Hold tight - we’re checking permissions before loading more content Rochester native Alice Prigg joins an exclusive club, celebrating her 100th birthday today. Born on July 6, 1926, in Rochester, she was one of seven children for locals Paul and May Rasmussen. A Rochester Football Club supporter for more than 70 years, Alice was honoured on Saturday at Moon Oval. Alice tossed the coin at the start of the Rochester versus Kyabram football match, and the Tigers took inspiration from the birthday lady. The Tigers did not disappoint, with the side too good for Kyabram in a reversal of last year’s Goulburn Valley League grand final. Happy birthday, Alice.
