I love his electric grills I use mine all the time. 76 is pretty good for a fighter, they got hit in the head too much.

The popularity of that grill was amazing. It seemed like every family had one at one point. Would you have enjoyed the Hulk Hogan grill just as much? The first call for sponsorship went to Hulk Hogan who missed the call and never returned it until after second choice George Foreman accepted.

This is pretty much proven to be an urban legend created by the Hulkster himself. The Only people that corroborate it are his cronies like Eric Bischoff(another Con Man, Liar and victim of Convenient Amnesia) and other wrestlers who still mooch of Hogan's dwindling fame.

Hogan (born Terry Bollea) also has such incredible tall tales including, but not limited to:

1) He was offered the Gig as original Bass Player of Metallica
2) He Slammed Andre the Giant at Wrestlemania 3 in 1987 and Andre died just days later (Andre died in 1993)
3) He was Originally offered the Lead Role of Randy The Ram in the Critically Acclaimed movie, the Wrestler over Mickey Rourke! (Director Darren Aronofsky denied this and said he's never even spoken with Hogan)
4) Elvis Presley was a huge "Hulkamaniac"... despite dying Aug 16, 1977 and Bollea starting his Pro Wrestling career Aug 10 1977 and not using the name Hulk Hogan or the term Hulkamania until several years later!

Recently, he was lambasted by fans at a Super Market Autograph signing for Arriving Late and Leaving Early, deserting 200 fans who waited the entire afternoon.

It's a HUGE stretch, but someone can become a HUGE fan of someone within 6 days. Elvis died 6 days before Terry's debut. I myself became a HUGE fan of Russell Brand the day I saw Get Him To The Greek movie. I didn't even KNOW who Russell Brand was before seeing Get Him To The Greek movie. 💡

You completely Missed the Point. There was no "Hulk Hogan" or "Hulkamania" in 1977... So Elvis could not be a "Hulkamaniac" at any level.

And it's not semantics, it's facts Brotherrrrrrrrrrrr!

Regarding the point at hand, The Foreman Grill and whether or not Hogan was offered it in the 90's, listen to Solomonster's podcast done days ago regarding the Hogan/Bollea Family and within the 1st few minutes he debunks the Hogan Grill as also not being a plausible story.

They don't call him The Huckster for nothing.

I think that I shall never see
A guy like Val in a movie
A saint, a bat and a top gun
And what the heck- Jim Morrison!

Val Kilmer at 65.

Of course, I enjoyed him most in "Top Secret!" — from the guys who brought you "Airplane!"
