Summerall drank during games. He was literally infamous for being an alcoholic. You could tell he was drunk by the 3rd quarter.
But, hell, they used to smoke on television during talk shows. I remember seeing clips of Dick Schaap and other, old, white sports reporters on a panel type show, and they were all smoking.
Smoking and drinking was just a very prevalent part of society back then.
