I Have noticed that alot of people on here don't understand why we make such a big deal about Rod Wilks. I Hope this will help! CHAVISUT I KNOW YOU WILL APPRECIATE THIS.
As the legend goes, ROD WILKS was born in Smyrna,TN. It has been documented that when Rod Wilks was born as his head started to poke out a little, he saw the Doctor wearing gloves and a surgical mask, Mistook him for A WR(it happens), shot out of his mothers vagina and tackled the doctor.The doctor's ACL was torn because of the hit and he missed the next 6 months of work. ROD WILKS did not have a normal size cradle because he was so large, his first bed happened to be a lumber wagon that was pulled by a ORANGE BIG RIG. To rock ROD WILKS to sleep, his father would drive the wagon up to the top of The rocky mountains and back home again.
When he was just a few days old, he could cry so loud that he scared all of the fish out of the Percy Priest Lake.The frogs that lived in the ponds nearby began wearing earplugs in the morning when ROD WILKS would scream so loudly for his breakfast afraid they might go deaf. His parents would go through 50 gallons of milk a day just to keep the bottle filled and his mother had to give him 10 pounds of chicken every two hours to keep his stomach from growling and knocking the house down.
When ROD WILKS was only 2 weeks old, he could wear his father’s clothing, His favorite was a #92 Reggie White Jersey. When he was three weeks old, on new years day he spotted a man wearing a Alabama shirt with a mullet(of course) in his yard. Angered by the disrespect the Bama fan had shown wearing those ugly crimson colors in VOL COUNTRY Rod Wilks showing blazing speed and Hercules type strength, tackled the man so hard that it sent shock-waves through the Bama fan base, Bear Bryant's grave ,coaches, and Players causing them to lose the Sugar Bowl to the Miami Hurricanes in 1990. Speaking of Hurricanes, his parents could not handle all the destruction that young ROD WILKS was causing, so they built a raft and floated it just off the Atlantic coast. However, this was not a great idea. He rolled over on the raft and caused a 75-foot tidal wave that hit Florida in 1992 better known as Hurricane Andrew(Should have been Hurricane Wilks but we all know how Florida fans are trying to take credit for everything). The Navy had to come to the rescue to awaken Rod Wilks from his nap. It took every cannon on the entire fleet and seven hours of firing their cannons to awaken him. ROD WILKS woke up and stepped off his raft but accidentally, sank four war ships.
Unfortunately this is all the information i have about Rod Wilks childhood. Hope this helped the people that didn't know or understand why we make such a big deal about Rod Wilks. And before i get crap about having way too much time on my hands, Im from Antioch,Tn and went to LaVergne High school Just outside of SMYRNA so ive heard this story my entire life. GO VOLS and god bless rod wilks.
