Throughout the years, quarterbacks have been seen talking on a telephone on the sidelines during games, which are typically used to communicate with coordinators who watch the contest from a booth. During an interview with NFL Films, Montana revealed that one day he found out the sideline phones could dial out.
"I don't know what made me do it," Montana said. "But one day, I had hung up, and I'm sitting there going, 'Hmm, I wonder if these things call out?' So I pick up the phone, ... I hit 9, got a dial tone and I dial my house."
The QB used the phone on the 49ers sideline to call his wife, Jennifer, during a game.
"The phone rang, I picked it up and it was Joe," Jennifer said. "He would say, 'I'm calling you to say I love you.'"
Since the first time he dialed out using a sideline phone, Montana checked in every stadium to see if he could call his wife.
