Terry Bradshaw, 76, frustrated by 'ridiculous' security treatment at airport

Hall of Fame quarterback Terry Bradshaw was recently upset by some ‘ridiculous’ security treatment from the TSA.

The 76-year-old Steelers icon was pᴀssing through the Springfield-Branson National Airport in Missouri when he was seemingly selected for extra screening.

And Bradshaw was none too pleased as security agents unpacked his luggage and took him to a private room to pat him down, he said.

As seen in a video of the incident posted to his Facebook page, Bradshaw looked puzzled by the extra security measures, while the person traveling with him said off-camera that TSA agents had ‘patted every inch of his body.’

Bradshaw at one point shrugged before making light of the situation to the person he was traveling with.

‘They gotta go through my luggage now. Yeah, I’m the Unabomber,’ he cracked.

Ultimately, Bradshaw cooperated with the security search but railed against the treatment he had endured.

‘Im not against being safe but…This is ridiculous!! TSA approved, had the body pat down, all the luggage checked, unpacked item by item,’ he said on Facebook.

‘Now going into private room for ANOTHER pat down. Come on Springfield how many criminals come through here???? I guess I look like one today!!!’

Bradshaw was in Branson to perform his self-тιтled show at the Clay-Cooper Theatre, which ‘brings some great fun, music, and stories to the Ozarks,’ according to the show’s website.

Bradshaw is also set to perform there on July 3 and July 25. 

Bradshaw, who has indicated he is not far off from retiring from his Fox Sports TV duties, has previously sparked concern among fans for his health. 

The NFL icon battled both bladder and skin cancer from 2021-22, and been accused by viewers of ‘slurring’ his words on air.

‘I’m sensitive, so I don’t read anything about myself ever,’ he said at Fox Sports’ Super Bowl media day in February, when asked by Jameis Winston about handling online criticism.

‘My wife knows it. She keeps all the bad stuff away because it does come. I can handle it now, and I even calm her down. But be at peace with yourself, and don’t let people distract you.

‘If you’re doing that, then you’re not strong enough to play quarterback, and you got to be strong enough right up here [your head] and right in here [your heart] to play quarterback.’

Bradshaw said in New Orleans ahead of this year’s Super Bowl that he is targeting the 2029 Super Bowl for his retirement, when he will be 80 years old.
