YES...I really did eat breakfast with Hulk Hogan!
Feb 25 Most people don’t believe me when I first tell them that I used to eat breakfast with Hulk Hogan on a regular basis when I was just a kid, but it’s absolutely true. His real name is Terry and he and my Dad and a guy named Paul, actually used to work out together, believe it or not, at a car wash in Cape Canaveral, FL. This was way before he was famous and back then, the soon to be “Hulkster” was just a bouncer at a few of the clubs around town, like Coconuts on the beach. When he wasn’t lifting weights, he was eating breakfast at a world famous restaurant, that we all LOVED but has since closed, called “The Moon Hut”. I remember watching him have to duck when he walked in the restaurant and thinking he was literally a giant. When he sat down he’d look at me and say “Hey there meatball, what you up to?” Isn’t that crazy? Hulk Hogan used to call me “meatball” and I loved it for some reason. He always paid attention to me and made me feel like one of the big guys. If you’ve ever seen his VH1 reality show “Hogan Knows Best”, you have probably seen the softer side of the Hulk. He was always very nice to me.
For breakfast, he would always order two glasses and 8 raw eggs. I’d sit there and dry heave for like 10 minutes, watching him crack 4 eggs in each glass and then straight up chug the slime. He jokingly offered me some one time and with my eyes watering, I quickly directed my focus back to the safety of my French toast and bacon strips. To this day, I can’t figure out why, but I find “cooked” food so appealing.
Of course, I haven’t seen him since he became so famous…funny how he forgot his little breakfast buddy “meatball” when the money started rolling in. I see how you are Hulkster; you subject me to weekly routines of watching you drink raw eggs, induce childhood trauma, and then just run off and conquer the wrestling world, while little old “meatball” is left to pick up the pieces of a dysfunctional childhood. Just kidding man…I absolutely loved the attention you gave me and you really did go out of your way to make me feel special as a kid and I’ll never forget you for that! Seriously…just look at the little “meatball” from Cape Canaveral now. He’s all grown up with a few meatballs of his own and he actually followed directly in your footsteps and became a Professional Wrestler with WNWF (World Negativity Wrestling Federation). Not sure if you’ve heard about it or not, but it’s still a pretty serious battle. I fight it daily, here at www.KickstartMyDay.com
Hey, if you ever want to pay me back for the childhood trauma, I’ve always had a dream to meet you again as an adult, and the coolest thing in the world would be to sit down and do a Hulkster Kickstart video with you; maybe over 8 raw eggs and some French toast, just like old times, you in? Don’t I wish!
