My favorite Hulk Hogan lie is that he once wrestled 400 days in one year. Not matches, days.

He also claimed to have been approached by Metallica as well as the rolling Stones to be their bass player.

He claimed that he was Darren Aronofsky's first choice to star in the wrestler. Aronofsky denied this.

Claims he partied with John Belushi after WrestleMania 1. Belushi died 4 years before WrestleMania.

Claims he got a spooky phone message from Roddy Piper after Piper died.

Says Elvis was a Hulkamaniac. Elvis was a big wrestling fan but died years before Hulk Hogan ever set foot in a ring.

Says that the UFC wanted him, and that he fought a couple of Pride fighters in the 80s. Pride wasn't around till the mid 90s.

Claims he tore every muscle in his back slamming Andre and that Andre died days later. Andre did most of the work on that sham and Hogan didn't do much lifting, and Andre lived another couple years after this.

That he got tickets for a make a wish kid who wanted to see him win. And saw the kids empty seat at the event and won it for the kids memory

Claims he never took steroids.

Claims he's not racist.
