5 things you need to know about Travis Browne

#4 He had an unorthodox childhood

Browne (R) grew up in Hawaii

As we noted earlier, Browne grew up in Hawaii. His father was a gang member who often drove around with a gun on his lap with young Travis in the car next to him. There were often drugs lying around the house when his father’s friends would come over.

However, the lifestyle led to his father’s death when Browne was just 10 which led to Browne moving in with his mother in San Diego, California.

Despite his father not being the most conventional parent, Browne has said that he treasures the time he spent with his father and that he loved him very much, adding that his father did the best job he could in raising him, considering the circumstances.
