I was a sales clerk at a Brookstone, where Hogan came in one day and bought an <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwocdImA6Z8" rel="nofollow">Osim iGallop</a>, one of the most ridiculous "fitness" machines ever made. He said it was a gag gift for his wife, it cost him about five hundred bucks. I happened to be in the stock room when he needed it carried out to his car, and it wouldn't fit in his trunk because he had too many pallets of promotional posters of Brooke in there. While he was posing for photos and signing autographs just outside the loading area, I took it out of the box and carried it over. It wasn't very heavy, maybe seventy pounds, and I'm not really the biggest guy in the world, but it was pretty awkward to hold on to. I had to put in in the trunk, and then shift it so it didn't crush the posters, and while I was pushing it in I let out the slightest grunt of exertion. Hulk found the time to look over, let out a grin, and say "You should lift weights, brother". True story. I used to work at a mall in Tampa, FL, roughly a half hour from Hogan’s home.

True story.

Despite the blow, Hogan summoned his strength, fought back and won. Not only is he resilient, but Hillbilly Jim and Junkyard Dog came out to celebrate his win. I took this as a signal that Hogan has crossover appeal among both hillbilly community and African Americans, which is an extraordinary coalition.
