Before The Rock made his way into the world of pro wrestling, he used to play football in college.
The Rock recently took to Instagram and revealed that his rookie card from the University of Miami has sold for an astounding $45,000.
The Rock said that playing in the NFL was his dream and getting to play in the Super Bowl was an even bigger dream of his.
“this story of how my univ of miami football card’s value continues to rise has become so surreal to me.“playing in the @nfl was my dream and playing in the super bowl was my even bigger dream. of course, neither dream came true for me but years later… on super bowl sunday my rookie card gets sold for 45k!! congrats to the winning bidder! i never made it as a player to the big dance, so this humbling irony is not lost on me one bit.”
The Rock played defensive tackle for the Miami Hurricanes and then played in Canadian football until he went into the pro wrestling business.
