==Early life==
Gable grew up in the small industrial town of Waterloo, Iowa. When he was a little boy his home life was not great and he always thought his parents were on the brink of divorce with how much they fought. He would even spend his nights watching out the front window when they went out just to make sure they always came back. His parents believed in corporal punishment and the cops were called to the Gable residence several times due to his father getting drunk and beating his kids.〔Husain, Michael.

Along with wrestling, Gable excelled at many sports before his sophomore year making the commitment to being a one sport athlete. He was a YMCA state champion in swimming, the quarterback of his junior high football team, and also very skilled in baseball.〔Chapman, Mike. "Dan Gable - Obsession and Determination."
