“I couldn’t even imagine seeing them in real life, these are my heroes. Let alone going into the locker room,” said Rudd as he built up toward his experience. “I walked in and it was the most incredible thing. Because they were all naked.” Paul Rudd went on to describe his traumatic experience, and he was his most animated self while he was at it.

He even went on to describe his moment with the legendary Terry Bradshaw as he said, “he was so nice.” Rudd continued to say that the memory of Bradshaw in a jockstrap is etched into his brain. It is now a sight he can’t really get over. Whenever he sees Terry Bradshaw on live TV. he can only think of his not so fortunate-fortunate moment with him.

Passing on the baton

A die-hard Chiefs fan, Paul Rudd christened his son’s football locker room experience in a similar fashion. He joked about how he has someone to share his trauma with as he took his eight-year-old son to the Chiefs’ locker room and was a guest at a similar show. The Chiefs were all naked in their locker room when they made a pit stop. Well, at least the father-son duo has something funny to bond over when Rudd JR grows up. 

The sight of naked men is the most common thing to find in a men’s locker room. However, the fact that Bradshaw was nice to a random 8-year-old kid, in a compromised position himself, says a lot about the legendary Steeler.
