BJ Smith

BJ Smith is a character from the Grand Theft Auto series who appears in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City as a minor character. He is a retired football player and businessman. Lawrence "LT" Taylor voiced BJ Smith, as such, BJ Smith shares several traits with former NFL star and suspected murderer O.J. Simpson (BJ also hints robbing a store during a K-CHAT interview, although it remains to be seen if this is simply a figure of speech or an actual event).

BJ Smith is a former tight-end for the Vice City Mambas, a professional American football team, who has decided to concentrate on business. He has since purchased BJ's Used Autos and has released his own fitness video called BJ's Fit for Football. He has struggled to come to terms with life after his football career, although he is known to frequent Colonel Cortez's yacht party. The police are also investigating BJ for his used car business, which they suspect is a front for selling stolen cars. BJ Smith is in debt and is doing anything for money, including training for a return to pro football.

BJ's approach in life is said to be heavy handed, citing football as an inspiration to his claims of resolving many of life's challenges with aggression and violence. The Vice City Police Departments file on BJ Smith also says that he is known for violently tackling his opponents.
