9. Actually he did it to avoid the draft

The deal was that if enough people (35) depended upon you for employment you would be exempted from the draft. Starring in a TV show met those conditions. Don't know for sure iff it was ever put to the test.

Also he starred in the "pilot" for Happy Days, an episode of Love American Style, before he did American Graffitti.
