Bam Margera received a special shoutout in celebration of being 120 days sober. This week, the Jackass star was spotted working out with his girlfriend Dannii at a gym in San Antonio owned by Jarred Taylor, the co-founder of the Black Rifle Coffee Company who also once worked with Mark Wahlberg on Lone Survivor, per TMZ.

In pictures obtained by the outlet, fans can see images of Wahlberg in his various films plastered on the walls of the gym. Additionally, in a video obtained by the outlet, Margera informs Wahlberg that he’s “doing some editing at the Black Rifle place,” and shares the news of his sobriety status.

“120 days sober, rock and roll!” he exclaims in the clip.

Wahlberg replied in a video that is now posted on Margera’s Instagram.

“Bam, hey what’s up brother?” Wahlberg greets the skateboarder and TV personality in his own message. “Thanks so much for the video, bro. So happy for you and your sobriety. Wow, 120 days. God bless you, bro. Hope you and your family are well.”

He adds that he “look[s] forward to connecting” with Margera soon, noting that he’s “always been such a big fan.”

“And yeah, I look forward to seeing you brother,” he continues. “I’m in Vegas, so, I don’t know, when you get out this way, let’s get together.”

Margera told TMZ that he has met Wahlberg a couple times at various industry events, and intends to accept Wahlberg’s offer to meet up some time.

Margera celebrated a month of sobriety back in September, following a series of troubling events, including an arrest for public intoxication in March, and fleeing the crime scene later this spring after reportedly threatening to kill his family and punching his brother.

After being placed under a 5150 psychiatric hold in June shortly after threatening to abuse crack cocaine unless his ex-wife let him see their son, he was ordered to stand trial for allegedly assaulting his brother in July.
