I always liked his name. Great player! RIP

Man, Roman Gabriel reminds me of Elvis Presley! Nice and rare clip-thanks a lot.

I remember as a kid I saw Roman Gabriel up close at the Eagles training camp(Widener University-Chester, Pa.). He appeared to resemble an Aztec warrior. R.I.P. Roman. 🥨

That slogan was quite the thing at the time. I also recall that a few years later Hardees came out with the Big Deluxe that was truly huge. It wasn't much thicker than a standard burger but it was durn near the size of a Frisbee. And loaded with everything. It was my go to burger for a time.

Roman Gabriel the 1st Asian- American to play quarterback

yes, Roman Gabriel is like WWE's Batista. Dad is Tagalog Filipino and Mom is Irish American (Batista is of Greek descent from his mother). 1) Roman Gabriel was QB of L.A. Rams and Philadelphia Eagles and North Carolina State Univ with NFL-MVP, 2 * the most passing yards, 4*Pro-Bowl, 2*All-Pro, College Football Hall of Fame, All American, and No.18 of North Carolina State Univ is retired number. Others are, 2) Heins Ward was WR of Pittsburgh Steelers and Georgia University with 2*Superbowl Champion, Superbowl MVP, 4*ProBowl, 4*All-Pro, Pittsburgh Steelers all time team. 3) Dat Nguyen was LB of Dallas Cowboys and Texas A&M with All-Pro, All Rookie Team, Hall of Fame of College Football, Texas Sportspeople, Texas A&M, Lombardi Award, Big12-Defensive, All-American, and the leading player of all time Dalls Cowboys and Texas A&M for the number of Tackles succeeded and both are not replaced yet. 4) Patrick Chung is Safety of New England Patriots and was playing for Oregon University and he is professionaly active now, and 2*Superbowl champions. 5) Scott Fujita was LB of New Orleans Saints and UC Berkeley with 1*Superbowl Champion. 6) Kailee Wong was LB and LM of Minnesota Vikings and Houston Texans and was All American as Linemen in College Football when he was playing for Stanford University. The 6 players above were (and currently active Pat Chung is) solid roster that joined all the game as game-starting roster for many years. They are much like, much like Ichiro Suzuki in MLB with the most hits in a season, 3*Top Average Hitter, 2*Steal Title, 10*Gold Glove Award, 1*AL MVP, and Yao Ming in NBA with 5*All-NBA, 8*NBA-All-Star, the Top Scorer Title in FIBA Basetball World Cup in 2006 held in Japan, and All Tournament Team of the World Cup in 2002 held in the USA and the Reboud Leader Title in Oympic Game in Athens 2004, as the tallest player in NBA. They are much like Manny Pacquiao with 8 class weight division world champion in Boxing, Michael Chang as the youngest champion of Grand Slam of all time Tennis history when he won champion title in French Open and Tennis Hall of Famer, and much like Batista in WWE with his 5*Heavy-Weight Champion Titles. Yes, you are right. It is much like Asian sportspeople win soooo many Gold Medal in Olympic Games, from Judo, Wrestling, Fencing, Weightlifting, Swimming, Volleyball, Gymnastics, Truck & Fields, Shooting, Table Tennis, Badminton, Marathon, and Rally Car Race like Paris Dakar Rally and LeMan 24, Moto GP etc etc. So not all asian are geek and nerd. the World Tallest Man without health problem which means the naturally Tallest Man is also Asian Man, certified by Guinness. Yes, you are correct, BUAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!

@@subzero8679 pointless argument- let it go. And I'm a Dan Marino fan, too, but I'm also realistic enough to know there's no sense comparing Marino to Gabriel. Both great, both deserving, both occupied separate epochs of history not worth analyzing unless you're willing to waste your critical thinking skills and burn energy.

Roman was a great quarterback.

It takes two hands to handle a Whopper.

I love BK even more now.

Roman Gabriel handsome NFL superstar with cool name !!!! Burger King whoppers are the best !!!

My uncle went to NC State the same time as him, as a result he is still an LA Rams to this day. Seems like kind of a forgotten superstar

This was actually aired in 1970.

The double entendres in this are off the charts

He was so fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG THIS IS A BIOLOGICAL GRANDPA. What is your friends name I think I might know him...

His greatest completion was completing an episode of Gilligan's Island (1966). Should be in the NFL HOF just for that let alone league MVP in 1969 and career 201 TDs versus 140 INTs. Compare that to the always over-rated HOF Joe Namath: 173 TDs versus 220 INTs. Just do the na-math.

Good joke there when he comes up with the Whopper. Everyone thought it would be part of Jim Nabors.

"led to the franchise moving"? You do know this was shot in 1969, right? And the Hollywood thing was a Rams thing since they moved from Cleveland. Crazy Leg Hirsch, Waterfield, Harmon, etc. There's even a book about it: "Hollywood's Team: The Story of the 1950s Los Angeles Rams and Pro Football's Golden Age"
