When he was a junior in high school, he raced naked across the Robinson High football field, where the elders received their diplomas. Apparently, Hogan was not punished for his act. He was not a problem student, and he was sincerely loved by both teachers and students, so he received a slight slap in the face.

Unfortunately for young Terry, but fortunately for the future Hulk, he was injured when he was 16 years old. This ended his baseball career. He soon took up wrestling. 3.
