Hulk Hogan's Death Has Made Me Nostalgic For My 10th Birthday Party And The Chaos That Happened At A WWE Event In The 1980s

Hulk Hogan's death last week was met with both sadness and derision. The former WWE superstar (and let’s be honest, “superstar” is putting it lightly) became a lightning rod later in his life for some very controversial moments and behavior. That’s not what this story is about, though. This is about how I felt when I turned 10 years old and my mom took some of my friends and me to see the “wrasslin’” matches at the old Kiel Auditorium in St. Louis.
