Taking to Instagram on Sunday, Dwayne Johnson shared a pic of the bids on his college rookie card. Along with it, he posted a huge caption reading, “This story of how my UNIV of MIAMI football card’s value continues to rise has become so surreal to me 🤯”

Dwayne Johnson’s post continued reading, “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!”

For those wondering about Dwayne Johnson’s football career, the Fast and Furious franchise actor played defensive tackle at Miami for four years during the ’90s. During that time, the team won the national championship in 1991. Despite his impressive play, Johnson’s football career ended the year he graduated.
