cyclone24 1,814 Posted April 11, 2018 Anyone catch this? Really well done.....was a really fun trip down memory lane as a kid. My daughter has him in Princess Bride as her ipad screensaver.....guy was just bigger than life to so many generations....even to kids who never saw him. Definite recommend. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reality 2,710 Posted April 11, 2018 Was going to post a thread about it earlier and forgot. Really well done, didn't know much about his life before WWF, they did a great job on that part of it. Highly recommend for the nostalgia alone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cyclone24 1,814 Posted April 11, 2018 well? You don't mention something and not tell the story Oh my bad I figured most people or a lot of people knew. On the road he was too big for the toilet so he would just s*** all over the bathtub. Hogan tells a pretty good story about this. I'll see if I can find it.

Still can't figure out why an NFL team didn't hire him to just stand at the line and block field goals. or put him at TE and he could stand in the corner of the end zone and throw the ball up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
