He was a great one. I saw him play the Lions at Tiger Stadium a couple times in the 60s. He was amazing to watch. He played the game with total reckless abandon. His highlight reel shows several amazing hits he put on Lion players. RIP.
 
Butkus was in a Season 3 episode of "Emeregency!" as the father of a teen who tackled him and he broke his ankle. Also fans of B movies saw him in the 1980s spoof "Hamburger: The Motion Picture".
Nick Nolte beat him up in "Rich man, poor man". RIP.
