Hulk Hogan.......

[Maggot]

I was in the Pontiac Silver Dome the day Hulk slammed Andre . I felt the earth shake and saw the wrestling world change

All my childhood illusions of good guy/ bad guy were shattered for ever when he became the leader of the NWO and called us Puke-a -maniacs .

Those NWO years were so fun .

I was always a Ric Flair guy but ya couldn’t grow up in The 80s and not be a Hulk a maniac !

Fuck Ozzy now Hulk - has anyone checked in on Kieth Richard’s ? Or Willie Nelson ?

The Nature Boy was the man. Whooooooo

Never was into the pro wrestling thing but my younger brother was , he definitely was a hulkster ,had all the bullshit gear , that was in his teens ,hulk hogan was his hero ,kinda like John Wayne was in my youth . Sad to see him go so soon ,only 2 years older than me.to tell you the truth Toby Keith hit me harder.

Hulk and Toby Keith were both great at pretending to be something they weren't.

I'm surprised he wasn't dead 30 or 40 years ago. That man did A LOT of Coke........

He was a party animal. I am surprised he lasted as long as he did. I loved his matches. He made Pro Wrestling fun again.

RIP Brother

All the more reason to eliminate income, property and inheritance taxes.

just an item on celebs dying. Paul Kantner and Sine Anderson died same day 1/28/16. if you don't know Paul was co founder of Jeff Airplane. Signe was orig lead singer. when Airplane started she passed going with them because she was a new mother. Grace joined from The Great Society and Airplane took off,became Starship in '74. if you remember this you are a big fan and real old.

Absolutely loved him growing up as a kid. Here I am last Halloween with some buddies.
God speed Hulk

Arnie and Sly say what........
Granted, Arnie admitted he quit using them after he found out they were bad.. (so he said)

Arnie was last competitive in 1980 I believe. A bit here and there after that for movies maybe. Probably not as extensive as the wrestlers.

To quote the narrator that was the feral child in "Mad Max," "I remember now..."

Celebs die on the same day fairly regularly. 2 sets that I can think of off the top of my head...
Jim Henson and Sammy Davis Jr.
Prince and Chyna (wrestler chick.)

As a person he seemed like a genuinely good guy, but I never cared for him as a wrestler. I grew up watching wrestling during the "Attitude Era" and Hogan was over at WCW doing his weird Hollywood Hogan gimmick where he was suppose to be a heel I guess. I don't have to like the character(s) he portrayed, but I respect what he brought to the entertainment world. RIP.

I worked on this TV commercial with him back in the late 80's.
I remember he was a good guy.
Someone from the ad agency asked him not to wear his cross and he refused to take it off.
Said something about he didn't care who he offended.
