Bam Margera almost wasn’t in the game

Although it’s now clear that Bam is a secret character in the game, he admitted back in April that he wasn’t certain if this would come true.

He was stopped by a TMZ reporter, who brought up the rumor of him being added to the game.

As a devoted admirer, I’ve often found myself in awe of Tony Hawk’s expertise, having witnessed my amateur self for quite some time. Recently, I had the privilege of meeting him, an encounter I never imagined would involve us both attempting tricks on his vert ramp. It turns out, he made a phone call, and it seems the deadline for our impromptu skate session has already come and gone.

He further clarified that incorporating him into the game would be straightforward, given his previous involvement in four other Tony Hawk series. This is because the necessary work for creating a model showcasing his unique style has already been done. However, it’s important to note that Bam’s participation in the game hasn’t been officially confirmed yet.

Since that time, the storyline has evolved, undoubtedly. Fans eagerly anticipating the celebrity will have the opportunity to play as him upon the game’s launch.

Apart from being a renowned and symbolic figure in the skating world for many years, Bam became well-known due to his appearances on TV shows such as Viva La Bam and Jackass. However, as he grew older, he unfortunately faced struggles with drug addiction and substance abuse issues.
