Bob Marley and Jimi Hendrix playing soccer backstage before a show.

Jimi Hendrix died in 1970, and Bob Marley didn't have dreads yet in 1970 pic. Furthermore, Bob Marely was still a few years away from international fame when Hendrix died.

TL;DR: This pic is either a fake or just someone who looks a lot like Hendrix.

Bob Marley first discovered that something was wrong in 1977 when he injured his foot while playing soccer with some friends. The wound seemed pretty extreme for a simple soccer injury, and when it got worse instead of healing, he decided to see a doctor. Marley was diagnosed with melanoma, and an amputation of the toe was recommended. Didn't and it metastasized 3 years later followed by death a year after that.

Those clothes aren't crazy enough for Hendrix. Even dressed up he was a rainbow.

TheDupree · 11 months

It looks more like they're completely taken aback by the sentient floating ball.

BunsickleMcTaint · 11 months

I had a music teacher who played a concert with Bob Marley. He said his band wanted to meet him so they opened the door to his room backstage and him and his bandmates were smoking pot out of huge banana leaves and kicking a soccer ball around for their warmup.

A bit off topic, but just before this was the origin of the term 'green' room.

Another great moment in history, brought to you by LSD and Weed

Nixon jumped into frame right afterwards, stole the ball out of mid-air and screamed "SOCCER IS FOR COMMIE FAGGOTS!"

davefromdallas · 11 months

I'm thinking the soccer ball is shopped and everyone is just tripping on pot and LSD ;)

tha_ape · 11 months

Both of them beat women tho...

I can also say, this is my favorite Hendrix performance of all time: Jimi at Monterey doing "Hey Joe" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_n_P40sEaM the tounge flick at 1:27(on beat too).... 1:39-1:59 G.O.A.T. and finally 3:19-3:36 again.... G.O.A.T!!!!

FearlessFreak101 · 11 months

laddergoat89 · 11 months

You mean Football?

Jayx · 11 months

they're really.....kickin' back

rchase · 11 months

All the fakeness aside, from what I've heard, you couldn't pry the soccer ball away from Bob on tour. When he wasn't playing on stage, he was somewhere dribblin'.

Alistracious · 11 months

TIL Jimi Hendrix killed Bob Marley.

El-Limbi · 11 months

Why is Jimi kicking? Bob is the one dribbling.

He kick air. HUH

OMG did the ball get kicked to you next? This is AMAZING!

pearcewg · 11 months

wow, look how stoned Bob Marley is! You can tell because he's wearing that hat...

AnonymousContent · 11 months

Or... "Floating soccer ball makes Jimi Hendrix and Bob Marley finally wonder whether they've smoked too much."

MVZOOM · 11 months

Hope Marley doesn't stub his toe on the ground...

lokiruffin · 11 months

Whoa, so smoking all that pot and sticking our legs out like this really DOES make the ball hover!

plebbzor · 11 months

Actually they're playing football...

Beartown · 11 months

All arguments are invalid

Compumerk · 11 months

If that really were Jimi Hendrix, he wouldn't have overdosed on drugs and would just be playing soccer and smoking weed with Bob Marley.

seattlephantom · 11 months

TIL Mr. T is on Team CoCo!

TheGanjToker · 11 months

Actually, they both just took a hit of their weed combined.

"Good ole' melanoma toe. Wouldn't want to cut him off!! I wouldn't be able to kick this ball as well."

mojorisin2592 · 11 months

If I had gone to that show, I would tell my grandkids every time they saw me and they'd be like WHO ARE THEY, after which I would promptly kick them in their respective dicks.

MaximusQuackhandle · 11 months

From over here, it looks like they are playing football, with their feet.

Gh0stInTheMachine · 11 months

I was expecting this to be a joke. Then clicked and said, "Well, shit...yes it is."

It's called football for FUCKS SAKE!
