Terry Bradshaw has endured for so long as a TV star in part because he is an everyman.
That quality was on display in a recent social media video, where he lambasted the service of a Walmart in central Illinois.
Terry Bradshaw lambasted a Walmart in Springfield, Il. for poor customer service. ScreengrabThe legendary former four-time Super Bowl champion quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers and longtime Fox Sports NFL analyst was in the state’s capital of Springfield for a horse show, and went to a Walmart to buy his granddaughter, Kaydence, a bicycle as a reward for competing.
“We couldn’t get anybody to wait on us,” Bradshaw said. “We stopped three people to ask them if they’d help us buy this bike — we’d [already] picked it out — [and] we even eventually got it down from the top.”
Bradshaw said they finally tracked a worker down for help. He called customer service, and it allegedly took them 15 minutes to arrive.

Then he said that his wife, Tammy, struggled with buying a hair dryer “because they keep them locked up for some reason.”
Bradshaw offered some advice for people who live in Springfield, Illinois: “If you want to buy some stuff, don’t go to Walmart. Go to Target or Home Depot, and see if the service is a little better there. I’m shocked that these people make billions of dollars every year, and yet the service is so bad.”
