If you were a kid growing up in the ’80s, chances are that you idolized Hulk Hogan.
Well, now you can count Jason Aldean as a Hulk-a-maniac, too. He’s from that generation. I mean the ‘80s and ‘90s were a glorious time to be alive.
It also makes sense, since they’re both big supporters of former President Trump. But it was still cool to watch Hulk become Jason’s hype man at the Rock the Country Music Festival in Ocala, Florida.
Jason told Audacy’s Rob and Holly, quote, “in this business, I’ve learned you never know what’s going to happen the next day. I had no idea I’d be buddies with Hulk Hogan, but here we are.”
It all started with their mutual friend Dee Jay Silver, who got a house next to Hulk, and started hanging out. Jason said, “next thing I know, Hulk’s coming to our shows…and I got to be friends with this guy that I grew up thinking was a superhero. It’s been really cool.”
Hulk Hogan would be a pretty good guy in your corner. Especially if you need someone to body slam Andre the Giant.
