Taylor Kitsch makes an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday (November 30) in Hollywood.

The 30-year-old actor, on the late night show to promote his new movie John Carter, chatted about growing up in Kelowna, a city outside Vancouver, Canada.

“I did play [hockey] for 20 years. I had the whole stereotypical Canadian [childhood], like, frozen pond in the backyard, apple orchard on this side. Two older brothers. Regardless I was goalie no matter what, made my own pads, head shots only, apparently,” Taylor shared.

“What I’d do for fun growing up? We would steal golf balls,” he added. “[Then] jump over into the golf course and sell them in egg cartons,” he revealed. “I was like 7.”

Check out part 2 of his Jimmy Kimmel Live interview inside where Taylor recalls getting in one of the most intense fights during a hockey game, why he had “to get my nose reset,” and why he snapped on his own teammates!
