That's awesome how cool the cop was. Congrats on meeting the rock, it was pretty smart thinking heading to the rocky statue early to beat the crowd.

I know you got a pic with the Rock a while back. Did he recognize you at all?

Cm Sheepstopper thanks for sharing and your a damn big guy yourself - you and Rocky are equal height - 6' 8' ?! I'm 6'3" WUT DA HAIL?!? Is Rocky stooping down then? I thought he was 6'8" - at least he looked like he was eye-to-eye with Hogan back at WM18 |

I'm just trying to figure out the mind of someone who does this..
You already met him a few days earlier and got an autograph. What made you want to skip a whole day out of your life and go wait around just to get the same thing you already obtained?
I never met the rock, maybe hes a nice guy. But i dont see why you'd chase him like that after you already met him and got an autograph. Is there a goal to all of this?
I'm not trying to rip, I just dont understand the hobby.

Probably because he wants to have another session of small talk with The Rock, I mean would you wanna meet one of your favorite WWE superstars and have a chat for as much as you could? |

Maybe because The Rock has butt loads of merchandise out there? In no way shape or form could a big Rock fan get all their merchandise signed in one sitting. From his movie career to wrestling career, there is so much a fan could want signed. He has held 5 different WWE/WWF belts alone. Plus programs, DVDs, 8x10s etc. I can tell you I went to Cleveland and Philly as Cleveland was mobbed with ebayers and I wanted a picture with him. It didn't happen in Cleveland. Thankfully it did in Phily or I'd be on the war path still. |

WUT DA HAIL?!? Is Rocky stooping down then? I thought he was 6'8" - at least he looked like he was eye-to-eye with Hogan back at WM18 He was pretty much eye-to-eye with Hogan. Hogans like 6'5. Rocks like 6'5. Great story man, sounds like you had a blast. It would be so weird to see a promo filmed and then watch it later, lol. |

I've heard Hogan say that he's gotten shorter over the years due to spinal compression from all the legdrops. I think Hogan said that by now he's like 6'3" or 6'1". |

The goal to all of it is trying to complete whatever projects you are working on. For me, I like to work on programs, especially the WM programs. For wrestlers that I am a big fan of....I try and get a poster signed. And I also try and get 1 8x10 signed of most folks to go on my wall. And my newest target of collecting is ring worn merchandise. That I pretty much limit to my favorites or if I just so happen to get a piece like Shannon Moore's ring worn Ink Inc. shirt or Anarquia's headband. Otherwise, I stick to my favorites. And like DJKnightRida said....someone like The Rock, its impossible to get all your stuff done in one trip. I'm just trying to figure out the mind of someone who does this..

Probably because he wants to have another session of small talk with The Rock, I mean would you wanna meet one of your favorite WWE superstars and have a chat for as much as you could? Its always cool to do that...no doubt. But I dont meet anyone that I am not already friends with or dont actually have a need for an autograph for. |

First of all, The Rock just stated on Raw a few weeks back that he was 6'4''. The WWE bills their talent (hell, just about any promotion does) as heavier and taller. The Rock has always been billed as 6'5''. Hogan was taller than this in his prime but he has shrunken down over the years due to age and surgery. He's lost quite a bit of height. Showstopper and Rock are almost the same height - take into account the shoes worn during the photo and the postures and there is an easy answer to it all.
Thanks for sharing, very very cool. I would love to chat it up with The Rock. Also awesome that he remembered you.

I'd really love to meet The Rock, he needs to lose his Scotland virginity & come over here!.....wow that came out wrong. Cool stuff, but does this mean he'll be via satellite or will he still be at Raw live? He has been to Glasgow several times outwith wrestling because his agent lives there. |
