Hulk Hogan's visit to a Children's Hospital in 2008 left kids and parents inspired, spreading positivity.

wrestling legend Hulk Hogan was obviously moved by the grand reception at Children's Hospital. This is unbelievable, man. You people are just straight, so I feel really honored to be the king and can I be the king next year too? He was the celebrity, the newly crowned King Bus 40, but he made sure the kids took center stage. He's huge and he still looks young. Squad has no clue who the holster is, but mom Noha does, and she loves his message. Probably to be strong, stay strong, because I mean it's it's *** lot to deal with, you know, *** positive message of the training, the prayers and vitamins that I was just spewing out there for 30 years. I think it just attracted all kind of very positive things and one of the things that attracted were the kids. No surprise that Hogan spent time and *** lot of it with the kids this morning inside and out. He lends himself to *** litany of kids' causes. They also put everything back in perspective for me, you know, as far as life goes, and it helps me keep my priorities in order and realize what's. Really important. Travis Brown and little Christina captured the moment on *** cell phone as the hulk went by room to room, and his message on the way out clear. Vitamins and believe in yourself and anything in this life you can have. That's *** fact, Jack. Inspiration is *** two-way street. On your side, Keith Allen, WDSU News Channel 6.
