In a video posted by Murray’s social media manager Emma Tani, the 27-year-old is was chatting with a stranger outside the popular Joe’s pizza.
Murray then struck a reaction when giving a ‘solid’ verdict to the highly-praised product. ‘What you think bro?’ he asked the man on his right, sharing the outdoor standing table.
‘Not bad,’ he responds. When Murray asked his new-found friend what he got, he shared ‘One pepperoni one and one normal one.’
The interaction took an awkward turn once Murray realized the man did not recognize him, a rare occurrence given his NFL stardom. However, Murray appeared to appreciate the normality of the conversation.

‘Nah, just enjoying New York,’ Murray responded.
