Jackass Star Funds New Weight Room for High School

Johnny Knoxville, the "Jackass" co-creator, recently visited South-Doyle High School to dedicate a new weight room he helped fund. Knoxville, born Philip John Clapp, grew up in South Knoxville and has maintained a strong connection to his hometown. The "Knoxville Strong" merchandise line, a collaboration between "Jackass" and South-Doyle brands, was instrumental in raising funds for the facility upgrade.

Knoxville expressed profound appreciation for his hometown, stating, "I owe it so much." His connection to South-Doyle High School, formerly South-Young High School, has led to efforts to further support his alma mater. He remains close with school officials and local business owners, underscoring his commitment to the community that shaped him.
