Terry Bradshaw, recalling with much fondness the day when the phone rang at his Las Vegas hotel room, in the midst of the Pittsburgh Steelers' 1970s glory days, as noted in an article entitled "NFL, the story of Elvis and his NFL fandom" as reported by Fox News on their January 8, 2018 edition.

I was in Las Vegas giving a corporate presentation, because that's how I made money in the off season. Elvis called and I was skeptical at first. But then there is that specific way he spoke, and it was definitely him. He told me he liked the way I played and invited me to see him. It showed how much of a fan he was, that he wanted an NFL player to come and play with him and his buddies. But I had to catch a flight in an hour and man, it would have been the story of a lifetime, playing backyard football with Elvis. And I still think about it now.
