Tony Hawk hilariously being mistaken for Tony Hawk will never get old!
Throughout the year Tony Hawk has been mistaken for "Tony Hawk" and the 53-year-old skateboarder has been documenting his hilarious experiences on his social media, keeping us up to date and laughing alongside him.
While some might be offended by constantly being mistaken for themselves and then questioned whether its truly them, the professional skateboarder took it in his stride. Taking to his Twitter, the 53-year-old has been keeping his followers up to date on his chance encounters. Below you'll find out favorite ones!

Just earlier this month, Tony Hawk shared an experience he had with a barista.

Girl behind counter: (not joking) “has anyone told you that you look like Tony Hawk?”
Me: yes, so much that I sometimes write about it.
Her: haha, here’s your coffee
Other girl by exit: (leans toward me as I walk out): “you really do look like him”

This time last year, Tony Hawk had some fun with COVID practitioner when he visited a testing site.

woman looking over papers: "okay... Anthony, Keegan and Kadence... Hawk? Are you guys related to Tony Hawk?"
me: yes
her: "Are you pulling my leg?"
me: no, we are all directly related to him
3. Peace and waves
Tony can't even seem to catch a peaceful wave without being mistaken for himself, see the hilarious interaction he had with a fellow surfer below.

Him: “you should tell people you are and then sign his name, haha”
His friend: “he’s real one”
