Dewey Weber era celebrated at San Clemente exhibit
The Dewey Weber life tale, famed as the father of hot dogging, is showcased in a Surfing Heritage Foundation exhibit in San Clemente. Wrestler turned surfer, Weber helped push board design in the 1950s, earning the nickname Little Man on Wheels. His career and turbulent life, including later struggles, are explored through author Jerry Derloshon's research and the exhibit running through December.
