Stone Cold Steve Austin Unveils Weird Obsession He Had in South Texas: “I Would Drive Around and Look for Old Coca-Cola Signs”

Stone Cold Steve Austin was extremely good at pro-wrestling. He was a great performer, was excellent with the mic, and was one of the men who led WWE through The Attitude Era.

However, before he became the man who led WWE through its most successful era, The Texas Rattlesnake was an expert collector of Coca-Cola memorabilia. Maybe this was his way of staying connected to South Texas and his mother when he started a pro-wrestling career and moved out.

“When I was growing up in South Texas, my mother and father used to go out to antique collecting, And, my mom was real big in the Coca Cola memorabilia. So, when I left school, and got into the wrestling business, and moved over to Atlanta, I would drive around and all the old back roads and look for old Coca Cola signs either in people’s yards or find antique shops and stuff like that. And to this day, I still collect Coca Cola memorabilia. I’ve shifted in the oil and gas signs, the old porcelain, the enamel signs.” H/t The Steve Austin Show.

Considering he still collects it, one can only imagine the massive collection he’s made. The Texas Rattlesnake even collects neon clocks, among other items.
