    He's a major jerk. That is how I'll always remember him. Evidently time has not changed him a bit. I hope he was miserable at Texas. He looked that way to me as well. I'm disappointed that anyone is going to help him out.

    My chance meeting with him goes way back, probably 30 years. He was in town to attend a body building event as a celebrity (maybe even as a judge, I don't recall). My friends and I were out to the movies. He was there in the theater. After the movie, half a dozen kids, aged from around 6 to 13 went up to greet him and wanted their movie tickets and popcorn boxes signed. In a classless move the exemplifies his jerkiness he refused and did not even stop to talk or interact with them in any way. He was their hero and he simply trampled all over their star struck hopes. He displayed a terrible attitude, he was not gracious nor kind. It takes so little to be a positive influence. Not to spend a couple of minutes with kids who idolize you is simply despicable.

    I don't remember what the movie was but i'll always remember his being a completely contemptible prick to the kids.

    I can't wait to hear your report back!
    I'm hoping that it is a good guy positive response, that would be refreshing and unexpected!
    On the other hand, if it goes spectacularly bad and he kicks you to the curb! that could be fun as well!

    Kudos for you doing this service and the same to Ed to begin with. Both of these acts reflect your natures not that of Mr. Ferrigno.

    Quoted from fireball2:

    Well then... now we got us a thang!
    I like setting up machines for noobs, rich, poor or in between. It's one of the things I like to do. And this sounds like an adventure. First one's free in the pinball world, right?
