Personal
During the offseasons, Bostic was a regular on the Oilers' summer basketball team that traveled around the state raising money for charities by playing various local All-star teams. After the team's twelfth season, Bostic had a reputation as the best player ever to play for the team. During one NFL training camp Bostic played with tape over his mouth to try to win a $20 bet with Steve Brown over who could keep from talking the longest.
His son, Tony Bostic, played running back for the New Mexico State Aggies as a non-recruited walk-on. His nephew, Nigel Bostic was a promising college football player who won a scholarship to Oklahoma State but was later arrested for gun trafficking.

Flouted opinion in his personal hair;
For foppery he gave not any figs,
But in his right and honor took the air.”
