Growing up in Hawaii, Dwayne Johnson has a plethora of hilarious anecdotes and quirky experiences. But The Rock has achieved many things – the title of Hollywood’s highest-paid actor, a former WWE wrestler, and a degree that he never applied to his career.
Destiny wasn’t kind to him after the former WWE wrestler was evicted from Hawaii. And that’s when he bought his first car at 15, which has now become a mirthful dinner conversation.

Dwayne Johnson Recalls Buying His First Car
During a session at The Joe Rogan Experience, The Rock shared an anecdote about his first car. He told Joe Rogan that despite having no money he agreed to buy a Ford Thunderbird from a drunkard at a bar in Nashville. However, things went south after this. After paying up and owning the car, ‘The Jumanji’ star discovered there was a meth head on the floor of the car as well.
From thereon the story gets interesting when Dwayne Johnson reveals that the drunk crackhead guy did not hand over the gas keys. The Rock said, “The next day, I go to put gas in the car. By the way, I’m 15. I had no f***ing papers, the car is probably stolen. I try to put gas in it and the guy the drunk crackhead didn’t give me the gas key. Remember those old-school cars that had the gas key so I ditched it at a f***ing Burger King.”
