Bandanna-Gate: Bailiff Bends Rules for Hulkster

Hulk HoganThere was a lot of "WTF?" buzz around Hulk Hogan's appearance at his son Nick's court hearing on Friday. Why was he allowed to wear a black bandanna, when it's SOP for judges to order people who testify to lose the headgear. It's a whole respect thing.

A public information officer for the Sixth Judicial Circuit said:

"It would have caused a big scene to have him take it off. Technically he shouldn't have been allowed to wear it. But normally bailiffs do those things when people are coming in, and there was just so much going on that it wasn't noticed in time."

Although the court doesn't have a formal dress code, no hats or caps are allowed, according to TBO.com.

4. This shouldn't be an issue. Hulk is an idiot. He should have known better. He was their pleading for his son's freedom. He should have looked professional and proper wearing a suit and tie and definitely nothing on his head. The arrogant SOB should be charged with contempt of court, providing alcohol to a minor and contribing to the delinquincy of a minor,. Sometime before the 17 year old's fourth traffic violation, he should have taken away his keys and car.

5. when is Hulk Hogan going to grow up and look like an adult? Enough with the stupid bandana already! Also, the way he described his son in cout as "gentle, kind, compassionate without a mean bone is his body" was inappropriate and disgusting... I am only disappointed that his son didn't get more than 8 months and that he is in jail and not PRISON!

6. yes he should have taken the keys away but the police stopping nick should have done just as much if not more. placing blame in a situation like this gets you no where. responsibility must be accepted and at that point you can begin to move on. but i don't think its right to sit back now and say IF's and what SHOULD HAVE been done.

7. This over grown pumped up steroid using has-been should have joined the Hair Club for Men years ago if he's so insecure about being bald.

8. Maybe the glare off his dome was too much! Great to see his punk kid in the slammer. Being a celeb, he'll probably do 4 days out of his 8 months and come out acting all tough and bad ass! Hope he ends up as someone's wife in there!

11. There is TWO SETS OF LAWS in this country. One set for the RICH and another set for the NOT SO RICH.

Example:

In California if you are RICH you can get away with MURDER. If you are not so rich you get the crap beat out of you.

When he does get out the first thing Nick the Bitch will do is get a spot on Larry King Live talking about the "hard time" he did in there and how tough it made him.

14. Every one that day broke the rules in favor of that bleached blonde overaged loser. The judge granted every one of Hogans wishes in favor of his loser son. He will walk away with out his record showing he is a felon. He will not get the yr like the parents asked for. Again it was all about Hogan when he asked that he did not want the judge to go hard on the son because of who his father is. What the hell is he. and the big question is why was Hogan not charged with adding and abetting a minor in suppling the son with the beer that got him drunk to get involved in the accident. Just like the 2 High Patrol Officers that let him go for speeding over 100 MPH in less then 10 minutes, when Hogan was in the car next to the little moron. The whole family needs to get a special award for MORONS OF THE YEAR.

15. I just hope the kis smartens up in jail.

His father has no respect for courts, non of the "so called celebrities" do. These people think the movies are real. Time to grow up, both of them
