Question for olson and others on Johnny "Blood" McNally. by G.K.Chesterton

Football Outsiders is working its way through rating the top 56 NFL dynasties of all time (strongly recommended for any NFL fans). Coming in at #12 are the 1926-1931 Green Bay Packers, and the write-up includes the following about McNally:

And then there was Johnny "Blood" McNally, the Vagabond Halfback, who should be mentioned in the same breath as a Paul Bunyan and Pecos Bill. He was as famous for insane off-field exploits (crawling along the top of a moving train to avoid a towel fight; climbing down the outside of a hotel to skip curfew; driving his car into the path of the team train he'd missed due to spending the previous night painting the town red … we could go on) as he is was for his speed and agility on the field.

Were there any similar stories during his time at Notre Dame?
