He was himself, as he admitted was not exactly the class clown when he was a University High School student. He was quiet and quiet and he opted to play football who set a school record for the most field goals made. Ferrell was not a fan of the absurd, humorous behaviour that would determine his career even in his suburban home. "Very even-tempered and comfortable," his mother recalled in an interview with Esquire. "You know those little Matchbox cars? Will be lining up his Matchbox cars, by himself, and be totally happy. It would be a simple question "Do you wish to visit Disneyland this morning?" or "You want your cars lined up?" It's a hard conversation for him to think about. Ferrell wasn't a perfect straight man but that's not to say he was not. One of Ferrell's comedy talents was displayed each morning at high school when the actor disguised himself to announce what was happening on the PA system. Ferrell was a graduate in 1986, and enrolled at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. There he was a member of the Delta Tau fraternity to pursue a degree as a sports journalist.
