Terry Bradshaw was a winner on the field, securing four Super Bowl titles as a quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1970s. These days, he’s best known as a commentator on Fox NFL Sunday. It’s an impressive resume, but even the rich and famous aren’t immune to unpleasant encounters with TSA.
Based on a video Bradshaw shared on his official Facebook page, it appears the 76-year-old had the recent misfortune of being selected for additional screening at the TSA checkpoint.
In the video, Bradshaw is seen standing in his socks, looking frustrated, as he is told to grab his shoes and follow a TSA officer standing off-camera. Next, Bradshaw points and says, “My luggage is over here,” before following TSA officials out of sight.

Always be prepared for extra screenings
It’s currently unknown whether Bradshaw was selected at random or if something triggered the additional security check. Still, it serves as a good reminder to always arrive at the airport early, just in case. You never know when those extra minutes will be necessary.
