He developed a love for the Tigers in the 1960s when sharing a flat with Tom Courtney who introduced him the the game and the team.
Conversion for Love
In order to marry Faten Hamama, Sharif converted from Catholic to Muslim. He has said that since his divorce he has never fallen in love with another woman.
Bridging the gap
Sharif is known as one of the world's leading bridge players, and in 1969 he formed the Omar Sharif Bridge Circus which toured the world playing exhibition matches. It has been said that in bridge playing circles Sharif is thought of as "that famous bridge expert who happens to show up in movies from time to time".
Courting Controversy
While starring alongside Barbra Streisand in the film "Funny Girl", a photograph of Streisand and Sharif sharing a kiss resulted in Sharif's films being banned in Egypt as Egyptian born Sharif could be seen kissing a Jewish woman.
