A quiet and solitary person, Ferrell decided to leave his mark on the football pitch, where he set records for school records for the number of field goals made. Ferrell displayed a lack of outrageous, funny behavior that would make his career famous and even at the suburban house he lived in. His mother, who was interviewed by Esquire she said Ferrell was calm and amiable. "You're familiar with the Matchbox cars?" Will arrange his Matchbox cars on his own, and be totally happy. It would be a simple question "Do you want to visit Disneyland this morning?" or "You want your cars lined up?" and he'd think about it. Ferrell was not a perfect straight man however that doesn't mean to say he wasn't. A glimpse of his comedic skills showed up each morning at high school, when he would disguise his voice for the daily announcements over the PA system. Ferrell earned his degree from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles in 1986. He joined the Delta Tau fraternity, and completed a degree in sports journalism.
