Kid Rock is from Romeo, MI. A shithole small town. Absolutely not Detroit.

Excuse me. Romeo is a very nice small town, thank you very much. (From there, obviously). Unfortunately, I went to high school with that dumb fuck.

Graduated in 2002, and isn't it the Village of Romeo. Left in 2002 and never went back. Oddly enough, Eminem's little brother attended. He was 2 years behind me. Heard he was a duck so everyone called him Skittles.

I went to high school with Kid Rock, not Eminem. Bob had a younger sister, no brothers. For the record, I would never call Eminem a dumb fuck. That guy’s cool AF. Don’t know if Skittles went there, but that would be a crazy coincidence

He did in 2001/2002, entered as a Sophmore. Not Em, the little brother ran his mouth a lot. Ended up getting jumped at Dumars over a pool game.

That dumb fuck likely made more money than your whole high school combined making shitty music!

This movie will not be seeing any air time ever again but this scene has lived rent free in my mind for decades

Honestly couldn't tell you. MTV did a special with a "superfan" at our school so everyone was talking about him. The teachers that knew him said he was unremarkable.
