Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Actor
![]() |
On Philadelphia: “I've been here many times, yep. I came here to an Eagles game in high school, got plenty drunk, ate a lot of cheesesteaks—you know, the typical things you do when you're from a small town like Bethlehem. It's like, ‘Let's go to the big city! Let's go to Philadelphia.' I also came here to play Temple when I was playing for the University of Miami. Temple was still playing at the Vet. What an awful field. At that time I still had three ruptures in my back. I had to get shot up before the game and after the game. The Vet's turf was awful, so that memory I leave behind me. I also got to speak at the Republican convention here in 2000. I had a chance to sit with President Bush and Barbara Bush. There's a place here I always go: Morton's. They stay up for me, and the chefs don't mind cooking late.”
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is currently starring in Gridiron Gang.
