Once again, it’s story time with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson -- this time, it’s for Throwback Thursdays on Instagram. LOOK. AT. THAT. ‘STACHE:
Teens thought a 16-year-old Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson was an undercover cop because of his mustache
“I looked like a mutated, yet handsome SOB of a man child.”
The caption:
#TBT By the time I was 16 yrs old, I had already enrolled in four high schools across the country due to being evicted and lil’ trouble with the law.. McKinley HS (Honolulu, HI), Glenn Cliff HS (Nashville, TN), McGavock HS (Nashville, TN), Freedom HS (Bethlehem, PA). I was also 6’4 225lbs, rockin’ a dead caterpillar on my lip (aka the porn ‘stache) and all the kids in every high school thought I was an undercover cop cause I looked like a mutated, yet handsome SOB of a man child. Plus in Nashville I was already hangin’ out in honey tonk dive bars on Music Row and hustlin’ cars from crackheads. Yup, one of the many reasons why I’m a grateful man for the life I have today and also grateful I straight up kicked puberty’s ass early in life. #GodBlessSamoanAndBlackGenetics #AndGodBlessOurTeenageYears #AndWTFWasIThinkingWithThisMustache
God bless you, Dwayne Johnson.
