I will never forget when he got home.. we were grounded – Marcus Jordan

“He’s terrified of snakes,” Marcus Jordan said. “My dad is terrified of snakes, literally. There was this one time when my brother and I we were young, probably like 12 and 14. We got a bunch of rubber snakes, and we threw them in my dad’s room on top of the bed, in the master bedroom. And I’ll never forget when he got home. .. .we were grounded.” Marcus said on the show. “I think he was caught off guard. He realized that they weren’t real after a while. So, he was running around the house, trying to figure out who pranked him…At first, he did (think they were real.)” he added.

When the incident happened, although Jordan was petrified, it was a light-hearted moment for his son at that point in time. When people read this they would scratch their heads and think how could Jordan have fears such as this But he is human after all. Whoever hears about Jordan on the show could get a slight grin as they would not have expected him to have fears such as this.
