Lawrence Taylor Was Once Late to NFL Game Because of Slow-play
Collinsworth then chimed in with what he described as “the single greatest story I’ve ever heard,” about a time when L.T. was late to a Monday Night Football game, and L.T. to explain himself to Parcells.
“I said, ‘Why were you late to the game?” Collinsworth said. “And [L.T.] said, ‘Man, the foursome in front of me was so slow, and I couldn’t get there on time.
“And I said, ‘Well what did you tell Parcells when you got to the stadium and came out on the field in your uniform and everything?” Collinsworth continued. “[L.T.] said, ‘Coach, the foursome in front of me was playing so slow …’ I said, ‘No you didn’t! No you didn’t! There’s no way!”
Even LT (The best defensive player in history of the NFL) is subject to a group of assh*oles in front of him taking there sweet time getting off the hole. He was probably having the round of his life and thought no way is he cutting it short just to make it to some silly Monday Night professional football game where he gets paid tons of money to play in.
Another story about LT being late, since you liked that one so much.

This showed where LT’s priorities were at:
- Golf
- Everything Else
What is even more insane is that this group in front of him didn’t look back and go “Holy sh*t, we better let this guy play through!” Not too many people on this earth as intimidating than LT…
