Hogan Celebrates Intoxication

File this under "Bad Ideas" -- a leathery Hulk Hogan presided as "King of Bacchus" at a Mardi Gras parade yesterday. Bacchus is the Roman god of wine and intoxication.

The Hulkster's son Nick was involved in a high speed crash that left his passenger, John Graziano, in a coma. Nick was drinking before the crash.

16. Are you for real TMZ?! Why bring up his son? He is a grown ass man, he can get drunk if he wants! I can see if you guys got a pic of him driving a car drunk but he's in a Super Bowl Parade! What no body drinks over at TMZ? I'm sure you have better stories to post then to bring up what son did. The hoorible events that occur dosnt mean that none of these people should drink ever agian, it just teaches them a very unfortunate lesson! WTF does one have to do with the other?

17. I see Nick committing suicide and/or drug overdose. There is no way in hell this world is gonna forgive him or ever accept him.
Kiss his ass goodbye. I say good riddens to bad trash.

18. Proof positive that Hulk's life goes on as does Nick's. They don't give a rat's ass about the war hero they put brain dead in a hospital for the rest of his life. This young war hero is not dead but he might as well be. If God had mercy on his soul, he'd take him to Heaven.

Then he would put Nick in that hospital bed for the rest of his life. Nick feels no shame. He's out and about living his life large just like every member of his ignorant family.

Shame on you Hulk. SHAME ON YOU.

19. "Hogan received the honor in part because meeting Hogan is one most requested "wishes" of the terminally ill children benefited by the Make-A-Wish Foundation" He spent most of his weekend that wasnt in the parade at the childrens hospital. Yeah his kid is a pinhead, and *hulk hogan* is going to pay for it since said pinhead was 17 at the time. If he has to be in some parade with a Greek Mythology title he probably doesnt even understand to give some dying kids a thrill then so be it.
http://www.kreweofbacchus.org/html/mythology.htm others have preceded him in this and many with some *iffy* issues of alcohol of their own.
I say this as NOT a hulk hogan fan but as a fan of the parade and the spirit of mardi gras, why taint it with his sons sins?

20. How do any of you know Nick is not sorry? Sure seems like there is a lot of jealous people of a good looking family, that is successful in life, unlike you nobodies. And Brook Hogan is gorgeous, I imagine most of the comments about her being ugly are from fat, lazy women whose men left them long ago, cuz they wouldn't get their asses off the computer to take care of their families.

21. Right, because it's inappropriate for a grown man, well over the drinking age, to pose as a central character in a Mardi Gras parade. Oh wait, it's not. Just because his son engaged in underage drinking doesn't mean that Hulk Hogan can't imbibe if he wants. He's clearly not driving. Some of you people need to get off your high horses, it is a long fall down, after all.

23. Why do some people insist on using CAPS all the time. If you didn't know the way you turn off CAPS is by hitting it again. It's that button right next to the letter "A". Retards.

26. Lousy father. Awful husband. Worthless businessman. Second rate wrestler. Yet, he still has all his "little Hulkamaniacs". Meanwhile his kid destroys the lives of the people around him. I lost a brother because of a drunk 17-year-old in a car. I would wish that Hogan's kids end up the same way, but somehow I don't think it would bother the "Hulkster" at all.

Must be fun not having a conscious. Or morals.

I wish I could be like that.

28. I saw him last night in the Bacchus parade. He was there at the request of the krewe as a "Child's Wish". The sick children at Children's Hospital in New Orleans benefited from his present. As far as I could see he was not drinking - he was standing flexing his muscles to the screaming crowd. Maybe if he hadn't spoiled his son with some many luxuries he would't be in so much trouble. A job for his son to pay off some legal bill would be helpful or to help his friend's family for all their expensives.

30. So....let me get this straight....his son was drinking and driving, put someone in a coma in result of it and then Hulk puts himself in the position as Roman God of wine and intoxication? How wrong is that!!!!!!!!!
