Quote:
Phillip Alexander “Phil” Robertson (born April 24, 1946) Created the Duck Commander duck call in 1972, as well as incorporated the Duck Commander company in 1973. [6] Phil has become a legend in Louisiana and in the duck-hunting world in general. [7] He played college football at Louisiana Tech University, starting ahead of Hall-of-Famer Terry Bradshaw, and was drafted by the Washington Redskins after his Junior year. He turned it down and quit football because it interfered with duck season.
Phil is often quoted as saying “Terry went for the bucks and I went for the ducks.”
I believe it was one of the old “Duckmen” videos in which Phil told a story of how he got in trouble with the coach because he’d often walk into the locker room on Saturday mornings just before the game, covered in blood and feathers, and say ‘So who we playin’ today, boys?’
