Nick Bollea, Son Of The Hulkster, To Serve 8 Months Without You Know What

Travis Hudson — Fri, 09 May 2008 17:05:00 EDT

Nick Bollea was sentenced to eight months in prison on charges of reckless driving from a street racing incident that left his 1998 Toyota Supra wrapped around a tree and a passenger critically injured. The jail time begins immediately and Bollea will also have five years of probation and a suspended license for three years. Bollea is the son of the Hulkster, who was also in attendance of the hearing dressed in black, head-to-toe (including his signature stocking cap). The lawsuit is still pending. [Sun-Sentinel]

Bollea Expected To Let Judge Decides His P***y Fate

Travis Hudson — Fri, 09 May 2008 12:15:00 EDT

The ongoing trial of Nick Bollea, son of the Hulkster, previous owner of a ~~P***y Magnet~~ 1998 Toyota Supra, street racer and driver during a wreck that left another individual critically injured, has taken another turn that could be dastardly for the son of the Hulkster. Bollea originally plead not guilty to felony charges of reckless driving involving serious bodily injury, but is expected to withdraw the plea and likely plea guilty or no contest to the charges and put his fate in the hands of the judge with a maximum sentence of five years in prison. The passenger at the time of the wreck, John Graziano, is still bed-ridden and is in the process of filing a lawsuit against the Bollea family. [TBO] (Image)

Police Photos From Nick Hogan Supra Crash Released, Still P***y Magnet Yellow

Travis Hudson — Thu, 13 Mar 2008 16:00:00 EDT

How does the age-old adage go? Mangled or not, it's still a yellow p***y magnet? The Clearwater Police Department has released hundreds of pictures of the ~~p***y magnet~~ yellow 1998 Toyota Supra. The original report says that Nick "Hogan" Bollea originally struck a curb, spun 180 degrees and slammed into a palm tree. These pictures look more like the Hulkster got a hold of the car at Wrestlemania 1998 and tore it to shreds.

The family of passenger of the vehicle at the time, John Graziano, is still continuing with their lawsuit against the Bolleas. [My Fox Tampa Bay]

Judge Orders Pre-Sentence Investigation For Nick Hogan

Travis Hudson — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 17:10:00 EST

The ongoing saga of Nick "Hogan" Bollea continues to play out as the judge in the case has ordered a pre-sentencing investigation for the son of the Hulkster. If you need a memory refresher, Bollea was arrested after crashing his ~~p***y magnet~~ 1998 Toyota Supra while street racing and seriously injuring his friend. How detrimental is a pre-sentence investigation? Well, we didn't pass the bar, but we know a lil' bit ...

...a pre-sentence investigation is usually done when a lot of different punishments or if a case goes to trial and the potential exists for plea deals. The investigation can also look into family life, which incidentally — appears to be going through some details which may or may not be caused by the incident in question. Hulk and Linda, we're looking at you.

Basically, Bollea has potential to be in a hulk-load of trouble, but not too much of a hulk-load, because he is a minor and isn't as legally culpable for his douchebaggery as an adult. [via TBO]

Commenter of the Day: WrestleMania Edition

Jonny Lieberman — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 17:45:00 EST

First off, the McLaren F1 JFG is a cornucopia of really fantastic comments. So if you haven't browsed through them, you oughts to do so. But the winning Commenter did not come from there. As you may have guessed, it came from the Hulk Hogan gets a divorce posted by the ever vigilant Hardigree. Normally we'd regale you with tales of waking up early on Sundays as a pup in order to catch Hillbilly Jim battling Big John Stud, but we've gotten so fat lately that we're on a juice fast diet and our brain is beginning to suffer. Lets get this over with (jump).

We notice that at least once a COTD some of you howl that Polar was robbed. Please trust us, we know how good the guy is. Need proof? Check today's gem:

The Hulkster's days of the three demandments are over brother!

She'll get the benchpress, the vitamins, and the bible.

Hogans Divorcing, Possibly to Weaken Post-Crash Lawsuits

Matt Hardigree — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 11:00:00 EST

Yet another twist in the Nick Hogan/Yellow Supra saga, with Mrs. Hogan (Linda Bollea) filing for a divorce from the Hulkster. You can see from the video that Hulk is a bit surprised by the divorce. While it's possible the stress of the crash and resulting litigation could be driving a wedge between them, the lawyer for the crash victim thinks the whole thing is a clever ploy to split the assets in half and make them harder to pursue.

It's being reported that "if the Supra and the Viper are not registered to both parents, it could be harder to go after Mrs. Bollea individually... [T]he mother's degree of control over who used the vehicles would have to be determined." If only the Hogans were this smart about not drinking and street racing. [Monsters & Critics]

Nick Hogan Arrested For Racing, Crashing His "P***y Magnet"

Ray Wert — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 10:45:00 EST

The strange panties-dropping saga of Nick Hogan continues. We've just learned the son of Hulk was arrested today in Clearwater, Florida on "felony charges of reckless driving involving serious bodily injury." Clearwater police claim the crash the young Hogan (also known as Bollea) was involved in back in late August that left his passenger, John Graziano, critically injured was caused by — wait for it — street racing. Yup, Hogan was supposedly racing a silver Dodge Viper when he lost control of his ~~"P***y magnet"~~ yellow 1998 Toyota Supra. The urine-colored car then struck a curb and spun 180 degrees across two lanes of traffic, slamming rear-end first into a palm tree. We'll keep you up-to-date on what happens next, as well as how many panties drop at the mere mention of Hogan's super Supra. In case you've forgotten what the Supra looked like post-crash, we've re-included our gallery below. You know, for purposes of posterity. (Hat tip to M0L0TOV!)

UPDATE: According to AutoBlog's cousins at TMZ, the young Hogan was allegedly also showing a wee bit of alcohol in his bloodstream and to make matters worse, he was driving with tinted windows — naughty, naughty! More here.

Nick Hogan Calls His Supra A "P***y Magnet" In Rides Magazine, Claims To Have "Terrible Driving Record"

Ray Wert — Thu, 30 Aug 2007 12:45:00 EDT

After learning earlier this morning about the possibility one of Hulk Hogan's Vipers may have been involved in the race that led to the crash of his son, Nick Hogan's (aka Nick Bollea) Supra (Again, pics of the crushed Supra here — and below), we really didn't think it was possible for there to be yet another wrinkle in the saga. We were wrong. The son of Hulk Hogan apparently gave an interview in the upcoming issue of Rides magazine where in addition to claiming he has "a terrible driving record," he talks about both his yellow Supra and his (father's?) silver Viper. Here's what he has to say about what the 16-year-old kid terms his "hatchback-like" Supra and Viper:

The yellow Supra...[a] p***y magnet for sure. I mean, the green and the silver appeal more to men, 'cause a guy knows what he's looking at and will drool over it. But girls see the yellow, and panties start dropping off.

Yeah — our bet is those panties are droppin' cause you got your dad's green in your pocket, not because you're driving a urine colored Supra. But, maybe the kid'll learn why it's important not to shoot your mouth off. [Ridez via TMZ]

Hulk Hogan Was Not The Driver Of The Viper Involved In His Son's Crash

Ray Wert — Thu, 30 Aug 2007 10:45:00 EDT

Last news we heard in the Nick Bollea Toyota Supra crash story (See the photos of the smashed-up Supra here!) came yesterday, when we heard the son of Hulk Hogan may have been engaging in some stoplight to stoplight racing with a Dodge Viper. Although we knew yesterday police believed the Hulkster was not the driver of any vehicle involved in the crash nor was he on site at the time of the crash, there's now rampant speculation one of his Vipers was involved. According to state records, Hogan owns three of the snake-like Dodge speed demons — "a 1994 roadster, a 2003 roadster and a 2006 roadster coupe." Police haven't ruled out the theory someone else may have been driving one of the former wrestlers Vipers yet. The other bit of news we're hearing comes by way of the St. Petersburg Times:

"Rabih Cheaib, 20, who watched the high-speed race and was at the scene shortly after the crash, said he saw the Viper return to the area after the accident. He recognized the driver as Dunedin resident Danny Jacobs, whom he knew through friends."

We're assuming with 22-year-old John J. Graziano, the passenger in Bollea's Supra, still in critical condition, the St. Pete's police are probably going to have a few questions for Mr. Jacobs. [via St. Petersburg Times]

Was Nick Hogan Racing A Dodge Viper When He Crashed?

Ray Wert — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 13:45:00 EDT

We've got new news out of Florida in the continuing saga of Nick Bollea, son of former WWE superstar Hulk Hogan, and his crash on Sunday of his Toyota Supra. We're being told he may have been racing a Dodge Viper stoplight to stoplight when he crashed. That's at least what one witness on the scene alleges occurred. We weren't there, so we don't know. Although we will say based upon the pictures below, he certainly was going awfully fast when it happened. (Hat tip to SwatLax!)[via WFTV]

Love Sponge Says: "Nick Hogan OK...Out Of Hospital" After Supra Smash

Ray Wert — Mon, 27 Aug 2007 12:00:00 EDT

According to radio shock-jock Bubba The Love Sponge — for serious, apparently Bubba's friends with Hulk Hogan's son — Nick Bollea's out of the hospital after his Supra smash-up we've already reported on twice this morning. Apparently the young son-of-a-wrestler ended up with "several bumps and scrapes and perhaps a broken wrist." The full quote from the Love Sponge's web site after the jump:

"...have recieved several emails and phone calls about nick hogans situation, i guess the news is still reporting that nicks status is unclear and that he still maybe in the hospital. i can assure you nick is ok, i walked with him and terry out of the hospital last night around 1am, several bumps and scrapes and perhaps a broken wrist.....our prayers and concerns need to be directed to nicks friend john, he is still in the hospital, and needs our prayers....bubba."

Yeah, who knew the son of Hulk Hogan would be best buds with a guy named "Love Sponge." OK, so maybe that's not too much of a stretch. We've re-included pictures of the crash aftermath below and can now hopefully close this celebrity-obsessive post thread. Well, at least until the kid in the hospital dies or gets better or whatever.

Post-Accident Photos of Nick Hogan's Supra All Smashed Up

Ray Wert — Mon, 27 Aug 2007 10:00:00 EDT

Although there's no new news out on the condition of Hulk Hogan's son, Nick Bollea, other than what we told you earlier this morning after we first learned he'd smashed up his Toyota Supra. But what we do have now is a series of photos of the Supra post-accident. After seeing the aftermath, we're not even certain how anyone survived.

Hulk Hogan's Son Nick Seriously Injured In Car Accident

Ray Wert — Mon, 27 Aug 2007 08:30:00 EDT

Nick Bollea, son of Hulk Hogan, the professional wrestler and now family-man on reality TV, was seriously injured in a car accident tonight in Clearwater, Fla. We'll let the celeb-obsessed folks at TMZ.com take it from here:

"Law enforcement tells TMZ the accident occurred around 7:31 PM ET. According to police, a Toyota Supra, driven by Nick Bollea (Hogan's real name), was traveling at a very high rate of speed when it lost control and hit a raised median. The car was flipped around and the back end hit a palm tree. The impact, we're told, "destroyed the entire car." The two male occupants were flown by Medivac helicopter from the accident scene to a hospital in St. Petersburg. We're told both men had "very very serious" injuries."

Remember, this is the same Nick Bollea involved with the burning Lamborghini from last year. [via TMZ]

UPDATE:Nick Hogan is reportedly in serious condition, but the passenger in the car sustained more severe injuries. He is listed in critical condition.

The Kid Did It: More On Hulk Hogan's Burning Lamborghini

Ray Wert — Tue, 12 Sep 2006 11:57:12 EDT

We've been updated on the mysterious flambe incident involving what we thought was Hulk Hogan's Lamborghini Diablo VT. It seems it was the Hulkster's not-so-Hulkish son, Nick...it also seems it wasn't Hulk's Lambo. That actually makes sense as we're not so sure he can afford it, unless that reality tv show starts to make some major bank. But, according to a post on supraforums (where we've been told little Nicky's a member) the following's the real story:

"the car was cecile barker's-the owner of sobe entertainment (the label to sign my sis) i drive some of his exotics weekly to keep them running, this lambo hadnt been driven in 3 years so cecile has a guy change the battery and says its fine to drive, so im driving it myself and im head to bal harbor when i noticed the gauge cluster died and im like wtf, and almost seconds after that i smelled electrical fire and by the time i pulled over the back end of car was on fire and i called 911 and tried to find a fire extinguisher but no luck and by the time the fire truck got there the car was totaled. anywas ill post my phone pics of the car on fire later"

So there you go. The kid did it and it wasn't his fault. Luckily he was smart and quick enough to take camera pictures of the fire — because that's like step one in "What to do when your Lambo catches fire." Wish we had remembered that one when we posted on those Ferraris going up in flames. [Hat tip to Mike]

Hogan Knows Fire: Wrestler's Lamborghini Burns

Mike Spinelli — Mon, 11 Sep 2006 17:29:14 EDT

Lamborghini's Diablo VT was a successor to the iconic Countach. VH1's "Hogan Knows Best" was the successor to the iconic wrestler Hulk Hogan's exceptional ~~acting~~ wrestling career. (Take a guess which one will be the butt of the jokes in this post.) It seems Hogan's Diablo VT recently went up in flames, as is the wont of some rear-engined Italian sports cars. It's not clear who was driving, or what the circumstances surrounding the incident were, but the car may have been piloted by Hogan's son (we'll call him "Josh" — even though his name's "Nick"). One thing we do know is that, according to photos by the Miami Herald Hogan's wife Linda has quite substantial calves and the ankles of a longshoreman. And that the car's toast. Otherwise, it's anyone's guess what might have transpired.
