We saw a celebrity

[Prince Eric1]

I thought at first it was the notorious spidey hulk coming off of the Dueling dragons, as he had on a blue shirt with a red bandana, but it was the real Hulk. HULK HOGAN. It was kind of cool because my wife pushes me and goes, "its Hulk Hogan". I looked up and see him walking off the ride through a private exit, and go, no, it couldn't be. I looked again and it was and the crowd all started talking to each other. It was about the closest I have been to a celebrity and it makes me wonder? Since i missed Saturdays meet and do not know what Spidey hulk really looks like, maybe spidey hulk is hulk hogan. It would explain all that free time he has to post seeing as how he doesn't wrestle any more (I don't think he does).

Guess it could be....thats too funny! He seems to be at Universal a lot I have read posts here before of people that have seen him there too!

LOL Prince Eric! SpideyHulk has dark hair and doesn't wear a bandanna. But that's cool. I remember when I actually saw Michael Jackson walk by. There was so much security with him it was nuts. And the reaction of the people who saw him walk by was great. They were all like "was that Michael Jackson?"

 

[TigerLilly's Mom]

How cool!! Did he appear to be by himself or with somebody? I remember people saying that they had seen him at Disney a couple times.

 

[ChrisFL]

Heh, I've seen him too, he came in to Gateway Computers when I was working there in Clearwater and bought a PC.

I was standing right next to him, but I didn't want to seem unprofessional, so I just said hi, not asking for autographs or anything.

Alot of wrestlers live here in the area and come into IOA alot. When I worked in Mythos, both the Rock and the Undertaker came in. I remember when I first started at Uni, the Rock came into Blondie's. The kid on the register was a huge wrestling fan, and said in a cracked, nervous voice, "Are you the Rock?" MR. Johnson replied, "It doesn't matter what my name is!" (Too bad he doesn't say that line anymore!). The kid asked for an autograph, a big no-no at Universal, but the Rock was happy to do it. Tripple H also was running around that day.

I also recently saw Shaun Michaels at MGM studios, but since he was with his family, I respected his privacy. I'm a big autograph collector; I usually say hi or aks for a signature if they're by themselves, but if they're with family or on official business, I have a personal creed to leave them alone. The only time I broke this creed was when Julius Erving came into the theater I was working at durring high school. The result is one of my most unique atuographs-Dr. J's signature on the back of the theater schedule.

Other celebs I've seen in my time at Uni: Warren Sapp, Babyface, Robin Williams, Joe Montana,Eddie Murphy, Steven Spielberg, Rosie O' Donnel and Drew Carrey.

I understand that Shaq likes to frequent the Palm over at HRH. I had dinner at the Palm while staying at the HRH, but I get the impression that it is more of a hangout for locals than a tourist spot. Anyone have the 411?

 

[Prince Eric1]

Tigerlillys mom, we didn't see anyone else, but he was so tall he stood above the crowd. A lady in front of me said that she saw his wife there with him, but I couldn't tell.

 

[SpideyHulk24]

Prince--LOL!!!! Sorry we didn't get to meet you. It would of been nice. DM and Fly Fly can attest to the fact that I am not Hulk Hogan...The only wrestling I do is with my 3 year old son and even he pins me down every time!!!!LOL...

Congrats on the siting and I hope you had a good time too!

One day we were having lunch at The Monster cafe and Hulk Hogan was sitting a few tables over having lunch with his family. We also saw Coolio walking out of Mels with his crowd. also met the dark haired singer from the group Abba (Annie?) and took her pic with my daughter. she was at the Nick studios as a guest that day. I was looking for my husband a shirt in the big IOA gift shop one rainy sunday morning and there was this guy who was looking in the same rack of shirts who was really too close for comfort. I got annoyed and went over to my daughter telling her about some guy practically rooting me out of the way and my daughter looked over saying OMG! That is Scott Stapp from the group Creed. at the airport I had a very interesting conversation with Tom Jarrel from 20/20. he was such a nice man and also talked with Mike Love and the beach boys who later came over to where we were sitting and had lunch at our table. also saw John Walsh (americas most wanted) and one guy who was a regular on Seinfeld. The only one I had enough nerve to ask a autograph from was Tom Jarrel. Linda

I for one can say that Spidey Hulk is not Hulk Hogan.

The rest, you can figure out...


And I am sorry I missed you Eric, would have been nice to meet yet another Dis person at the park but, I still must hold onto my secret identity....

 

[Flyfly_Eclipse]

lol Notatourist.

Anyway, out of all the trips I've been to Universal I have never seen a celebrity...but...maybe that's because I don't leave "New York?" Haha...just kidding...but seriously, how cool! I'd love to meet Steven Spielberg!

And SpideyHulk isn't Hulk Hogan...though that would be interesting...but I really enjoyed meeting Spidey and his wife...they are great to hang out with.

 

[ChrisFL]

Here's a question for regulars...do they ever do movie premieres with the stars at Citywalk?

 

[SpideyHulk24]

Notatourist- How did you know I wasn't Hulk Hogan?????? Did you see me????

It would have been great to meet you.

 

[Flyfly_Eclipse]

lol Spidey - I was meaning to ask her the same thing.

 

[the Dark Marauder]

I know how she knows! I know very well. And my interaction with celebs is to treat them as normal. Say hi, etc. Though I did speak briefly to Hulk Hogan once (backstage) and told him how he's my favorite wrestler of all time. He thanked me for my comment and I continued on my way.
