I've always loved the story that Jurgensen tells occasionally (although I'm not sure I recall all of the details) about the time he dined at Johnny Unitas's restaurant named "The Golden Arm" in the late '60s. Johnny thanked Sonny for coming up to Baltimore from DC and Sonny replied, "It's a pleasure -- and thanks for naming your restaurant after me." Ha!!!!
