Lance Rentzel

[Soonersince57]

Can you all settle this for me? Was it Lance that married Joey Heatherton for awhile or is my 50-year-old brain mixing things up again?

[TXHornsFan]

Can't comment on your brain, but yes, Lance Rentzel was married to Joey Heatherton. He was also arrested for exposing himself in public. Why are you asking about someone who hasn't been in the news in 30 years? Flashbacks?

[Soonersince57]

Heatherton gives me flashbacks.

[Lott's Bandana]

Heatherton gives me flashbacks.


Yup.

LR figured prominently in Semi-Tough...(or so it was alleged). Funny dayum book that.


Oh, and Terri Hatcher > Joey Heatherton

at least now she does.

[stoopified]

Lance THE FLASH Rentzel.It is a shame he did such a stupid thing because that is all he is remembered for doing.He was a talented player at OU and Dallas before his brain fart but nobody recalls that. :(

[cvsooner]

Married to Joey Heatherton and you gotta go expose yourself in public for jollies? Man had to be crazy.

When I see the name Lance Rentzel I think of Ray Scott calling a game. I recall Rentzel scored the go-ahead TD for the Cowboys in the Ice Bowl.

Cyclist Lance Armstrong (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lance_Rentzel) was named after the wide receiver.

[AlbqSooner]

I might have been thinking of Lance Allworth.

Yep. And for what its worth, back when joey was hot and rolling around on those mattresses she almost made me go blind.:eek:

[LoyalFan]

Seems Miss Joey was a switch-hitter. She was tossed off a Bob Hope Vietnam tour when she was caught satisfying a case of the munchies...between the thighs of one of the females with The June Taylor Dancers.
I wasn't in-country at the time but if I had been I'd have offered to imprison her in my tank and repeatedly initiate her into "The Breech-Block Club"...kinda like The Mile High Club, only safer. As it was, I had to settle for a presentable Army nurse.
After that episode I celebrated by funding a kegger (Mmmmmmm...WARM Black Label!) for the the unit I commanded and firing a few rounds of 90mm "Beehive" at some suspected NVA that were skulking about the perimeter of the firebase. One of my guys came over and said "Cap'n, sir. You are, without doubt, the craziest officer I've ever met and I want to grow up to be just like you!" Grow up??? Heck, I was in my mid-20s at the time.
Olevet can tell you that ALL iron-horse cavalrymen (tankers) were nuts. Something about gunsmoke, loud noises, and diesel fumes, I guess.

Mmmmmm....Joeyyyyyyyyy!

You sound like the Duval character in Apocolypse now ----- but maybe a lot younger at the time.

Everyone needs to read Rentzel's book , especially the part about the initiation into the O Club when he was a freshman. something about a pencil, a string, and a burlap bag. Funny stuff.

Wikipedia: Rentzel exposed himself two separate times!!


Thomas Lance Rentzel (born October 14, 1943 in Flushing, New York) is a former American football wide receiver in the National Football League for the Minnesota Vikings, Dallas Cowboys, and the Los Angeles Rams from 1965 to 1974. He was briefly married to actress Joey Heatherton. In 1970 they were separated shortly after he was arrested for exposing himself to a ten year old. Four years earlier he had a similar incident at a playground but was charged with disorderly conduct in exchange for promising to have psychiatric treatment.[1]

After attending and playing college football at the University of Oklahoma, he was drafted in the second round of the 1965 NFL Draft by the Minnesota Vikings. Over nine NFL seasons, Rentzel accumulated 4,826 yards receiving, 196 yards rushing, and 1,000 yards returning punts and kickoffs. He also had a perfect passer rating, by virtue of his lone pass attempt being completed for a 58-yard touchdown. Lance was an integral player in the 1967 Championship Game known as the "Ice Bowl," with a 4th quarter, go-ahead-touchdown catch. But, Dallas still lost.

For the 1971 season, he caught on with the Los Angeles Rams, wearing jersey number 13. The October 1972 issue of SPORT magazine had a lengthy feature on Rentzel, by author Gary Cartwright.

In 1972, he authored a book about his professional football experiences and personal life entitled, "When All the Laughter Died in Sorrow."

He dated actress, Victoria Principal.[2]

Cyclist Lance Armstrong was named after the wide receiver.[3]

Today, Rentzel resides in Washington, D.C.
