Terry Bradshaw not happy with ‘ridiculous' treatment at airport
Unfortunately, for the former Pittsburgh Steelers star and Fox broadcaster, he was the random traveler caught in the TSA's crosshairs on Monday morning.
At Springfield-Branson National Airport in Missouri, as the 76-year-old Bradshaw was walking through security, he was selected for an extra diligent search.

This did not amuse Bradshaw, and the person he was traveling with was able to catch his displeasure on camera.
'Im not against being safe but…This is ridiculous!!' Bradshaw said on a video posted to Facebook. 'TSA approved, had the body pat down, all the luggage checked, unpacked item by item. Now going into private room for ANOTHER pat down.'
4 The video was posted to Terry Bradshaw's Facebook account.

While Bradshaw was not happy with this decision by security, he was fully cooperative and even joked towards the camera as he walked with the guard.
Bradshaw was in Branson for 'The Terry Bradshaw Show,' which is touring across the country this summer. His shows consist of Bradshaw telling stories and singing.
Bradshaw, who quarterbacked the Steelers to four Super Bowls in the 70s, just finished his show in Branson on Sunday.

Somehow, this was not the first crazy incident that happened at an airport for Bradshaw this year.
While on a flight that had just landed in Pittsburgh on April 10, the exit door became jammed, trapping passengers in the aircraft for an extended period.
That is when, according to one passenger, Selah Gamble, Bradshaw unjammed the door.

'The pilot announced and you could kind of hear he was chuckling as he said it, but he said 'thanks to the strength of one of our passengers, we were finally able to get the door open',' Gamble told Ricky Sayer of KDKA Pittsburgh. 'And I think we all knew he was alluding to Mr. Bradshaw,'
But Bradshaw was quick to denounce these claims, posting to Instagram, 'Just to set the record straight… I did nothing to open the door on the plane! The maintenance crew had it open in 15 minutes.'

Matt Rife purchases Ed, Lorraine Warren's Connecticut home and museum -- becomes guardian of demonic 'Annabelle' doll
Comedian Matt Rife's new purchase is ha-ha-haunted. Rife revealed Friday that he purchased the Connecticut home and occult museum of paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, becoming the 'legal guardian' of the famed Annabelle doll. The stand-up comic, who bought the house alongside his pal and YouTube star Elton Castee, called the centuries-old farmhouse the 'most important and prominent pieces of paranormal history in the world.' 'Ed and Lorraine Warren are who took demonology, ghost hunting and paranormal investigation and made it mainstream,' Rife told his TikTok followers. @matt_rife INSANE ANNOUNCEMENT 😍🤯😈👹 I have officially purchased Ed and Lorraine Warren's home and Occult Museum, including being the legal guardian for at least the next 5 years, of the entire haunted collection including THE ANNABELLE DOLL, with my good friend @Elton Castee !! If you know me, you know I'm obsessed with the paranormal and all things haunted. You also may know The Conjuring films are my favorite scary movies of all time. So I'm incredibly honored to have taken over one of the most prominent properties in paranormal history. Ed and Lorain Warren arguably put demonology and paranormal into the mainstream and are the very heart of some of the most famous haunted stories of all time, The Conjuring House, Amityville Horror, et… We plan to open the house for overnight stays and museum tours so you yourself can experience and learn all the haunted history surrounding this amazing place. #TheConjuring #Annabelle #AnnabelleDoll #haunted ♬ original sound – Matt Rife The Monroe, Conn. home was once owned by the real-life couple who conducted over 3,000 paranormal investigations that inspired movies like 'The Conjuring' and 'The Amityville Horror.' 'The Conjuring films are my favorite scary movies of all time,' Rife shared. 'So I'm incredibly honored to have taken over one of the most prominent properties in paranormal history.' Rife did not reveal how much he spent on his purchase. Haunted relics from the Warrens' adventures remained on the property after their death including fragments of crashed Eastern Airlines Flight 401 and an organ that can play on its own. The museum also houses Annabelle, the giant Raggedy Ann doll, which was kept locked in a case labeled 'Warning: Positively Do Not Open.' 5 Matt Rife and Elton Castee stand next to the cursed Annabelle doll. Comedian Matt Rife/Facebook 5 The real Annabelle doll was obtained by Ed and Lorraine Warren. Comedian Matt Rife/Facebook The doll is believed to have a 'demonic' presence attached to it after it allegedly terrorized two roommates in the 1970s by mysteriously moving by itself, leaving creepy notes and it was accused of trying to strangle a friend sleeping in the apartment. Most recently, it was part of the 'Devils on the Run Tour,' hosted by paranormal investigator Dan Rivera, who died suddenly in his hotel room on July 13. Rivera was traveling around the US with other members of the New England Society for Psychic Research to show off Annabelle as part of his tour. The doll was not in the room when he died and state police claim 'nothing unusual or suspicious' was found at the scene. 5 The doll inspired the horror movie 'Annabelle.' Comedian Matt Rife/Facebook Rivera's cause of death has not yet been released. The recent incident has not stopped Rife from leaning into his new 'hobby.' 'We are the legal guardians and caretakers of all 750 haunted artifacts and items in the Warren museum including the Annabelle doll,' Rife said. 'We don't legally own the items, but we are legal guardians and caretakers of the items for at least the next five years.' The 'Wild 'N Out' improviser plans to reopen the haunted doors for museum tours and overnight stays to 'learn all the haunted history surrounding this amazing place.' 5 Ed and Lorraine's museum full of haunted relics is not currently open to the public. 'This is the most random hobby ever, but it's so f—ing cool, man. I should probably collect stamps or something,' Rife quipped. 'Might be a little safer.' The new owners will likely have to fix up the property's fire-safety issues before they can share it, according to The Providence Journal. 5 Comedian Matt Rife joked that he needs to find a 'safer' hobby. TikTok 'Still can't believe we're the new owners… Sitting on their porch now looking at all the photos of them at this house. We're gonna make this the best paranormal investigation location on the planet,' co-owner Elton Castee commented under Rife's announcement. The home and museum were not open to the public in recent years after it was shut down in 2019 due to zoning issues.

Ex-Steelers RB Cordarrelle Patterson goes viral after claiming he's 'jobless'
Cordarrelle Patterson's Steelers tenure didn't end the way he had hoped — but that hasn't stopped the All-Pro kick returner from creating comedy out of the situation. After hilariously revealing on social media that he had been released on his day off, Patterson took to Instagram with an even funnier take — claiming he was "jobless" with a photo of him mopping floors. Despite an uneventful, injury-riddled 2024 season with Pittsburgh, Patterson's legacy as one of the greatest kick returners of all time is unmatched. Steelers fans will best remember Patterson for entertaining attempts to recruit big-name wide receivers to Pittsburgh — such as Davante Adams, DK Metcalf, and Mike Williams, the latter of whom actually wound up in the Steel City this season. One has to wonder how much Patterson has left in the tank at 34 years old, but considering his four First-Team All-Pro selections, three Second-Team All-Pro selections, four Pro Bowl nominations, and being named to the NFL 2010s All-Decade Team, it's safe to say he's deserving of First-Ballot Hall of Fame consideration.
