Hey Bakotopians,
This is my first BLOG! **Clapping..thank you thank you
Yes as the title reads,Believe it or not I could have married Hulk Hogan
...hahaha..I joke about it a lot now.
Especially since I have married the Love Of My Life, My Soul Mate, which
it took us awhile to find each other, ships passing by each other, that is until
we crashed into each other full force, haha..But thats another story.

Yes Fellow Bakotopians, Hulk Hogan, Muscle Man, Wrestler Extraordinaire
I could very well have both dated and married him. 
The story goes, I was gigging with my Band quite regularly at the Famous and Now Extinct Casa Royale Hotel.
 Which I don't know if anyone remembers was a pretty happening place back in the day of Bakersfield Hot-spots. They had bands in the bar area, Boxing in the huge ballroom, The Chip-N-Dale Dancers all male review, {which I attended and honestly wasn't impressed especially when I went to the  after performance party and the Boys brought their Boyfriends with them, not that there is anything wrong with that} **Grin
But over all it was the place to be and I was proud to have supplied some of the
entertainment there at the time.
Anyway my father was our Band Manager at the time. I happened to be performing and I look over at the bar and see my dad talking to a Long Tall
Texan
looking dude. 
They talked for awhile. I kept thinking "What possibly could be holding my fathers
interest so long"? I mean he would "play the manager" and mingle and smooge with the clientele and with the Owners etc etc. But this guy, well he especially had him fascinated.
After I had finished the gig I walked up to them and was introduced to him. 
Its been so long ago that I can't even remember his name but I was not told at first
who he actually was. Later my dad explained that he was none other than 
the Father of Hulk Hogan. He was a big Oil Man in town and had been staying at
the Casa Royale.
Well Long Story Short: He said that he was very impressed with little old me and
said to my dear old dad. "Hey we ought to fix our kids up on a date". hahahaha
Well that never happened. Hahaha..Just one of my many adventures as a 
"Singer In A Rock-N-Roll Band"...:)
{The picture I posted says it all, Hulk, His Bike, And Me in our Golden Years} hahaha
