Here is a good article talking about his most famous play:

He joked with Johnny Carson and Bob Hope about it back in the day, entertained corporations with it even in recent years and turned one play into a cottage industry.
But he never talked of the pain that play caused. Nor did anyone ask how an Armenian who grew up in Cyprus, then moved on his own to London at 17 due to ethnic problems and worked in a basement warehouse made the NFL's All-Decade team of the 1970s.

Terrific character, but worst QB ever...
