If we told you that Will Ferrell didn't show any of his natural comedic talent to any of his peers during his time at the University of California, you'd probably be disappointed. Fortunately, we don't have to tell you that. Apparently, Ferrell's pranks during his student years are the stuff of legend. A favorite trick of his was to dress up as a janitor and wander into his friends' classes. He was also fond of streaking, along with the rest of his Delta Tau Delta frat brothers.
When he wasn't getting himself and everybody else around him into trouble, Ferrell was studying for a qualification in sports broadcasting. He followed through by taking an internship at a local television station, where he worked in the sports department, but didn't enjoy it. Regardless of that, the experience probably served him very well for his future role in 'Anchorman'.
