So there was this MegaCon convention going on in Orlando, FL. that I attended and one of the so-called stars who was making an appearance was none other than Lou "The Incredible Jerk" Ferrigno. I can NOT stand the man and DON'T care for him, but I was standing in line (there was only 2 people in front of me and no one behind) so I can simply ask him if he knew anything about Pumping Iron being re-released with additional footage aside from the 25th anniversary DVD.
Anyway, the lady in front of me was next and so she had asked Lou if he would take a picture with her son and pointed to him who happened to be a kid in a wheelchair and with warp speed Lou said, "No." and shook his head. Now, normally this wouldn't surprise me 'cause I know what kinda person he is, but for him to be so cold without giving it a second thought made me a bit surprised.
Don't worry, Lou! YOU'LL GET YOURS! >:(
-
Lou has always been a friggin` idiot.
It would probably have made the kids day,but Lou`s a fuckwad!!
-
exactly wes, it would of taken what, a whole 5 minutes of his day to make that kids whole world..ASSHOLE
-
Lou was probably jealous the kid had better wheels than him.
Sorry couldn't resist. :P
-
"The kid in the wheelchair? ....Nah, I saw him walking outside 20 mins ago."
Now go bitch about it on GetBig ! WOOOSSSSHHHHHHHHHH

If you don't like him why were you in line ???
-
Lou is constantly overshadowed by the fact that've has to go to Comic Conventions and sell pics. Think about it, his career is LONG gone...he should have other business interests. He could lend his name to a griller, a cooker, or a exercise contraption and make a killing...or a Ice Cream flavor "Lou F. Hulk Lime or some shit).

Holy shit dude, I was thinking of going to MegaCon but got lazy and decided not to at the last minute! Rumor has it Stan Lee was there, that true?
Are you from Orlando?

Wow. Really? Did you just not read what I posted as to why I was in line? ???

I don't know. I wasn't the fuckin' mother! Hahaha
She asked Lou; pointed to her son; he said no; so she walked outta line and whispered something to her son's ear and left with him.

Hopefully she told him not to grow up and be like him.

Why didn't you say something to him in light of his disgusting acts?
You could have called him a worthless, piece of shit and even given him the finger..
Did you at least get close to the little kid in the wheelchair and yelled "FAIL!!" as he wobbled away?
WTF? Where were your GetBig instincts?
As per Lou, that's typical of him, but the kid has no excuse, you should have put that kid in his place!

x2. I think Lou is bitter because he's starting to realize he's failed at life in comparison to Arnold. Lou always thought he was better than arnold because he was bigger and stuff, and he thought the incredible hulk would be the jumpstart to a huge movie business like arnold. But in the end, he's stuck standing behind foldout tables at whatever convention that will allow him to set up, waiting till the next person that remembers him comes over and asks a question. I think that's why he charges 20 dollars for a photo, to make him feel important.
He was lucky to have been given that small role on the king of queens :-\
-
I will say this...
When I was asking him about the Pumping Iron DVD he was so quick to try and sell me one of his photos. Of course I just shrugged it off and said, "OK." And NO I did NOT buy one! Hahaha
I did notice though that there was a note on the desk stating you can purchase a Polaroid picture with him for $40. No thanks! ::)
Everyone else was super nice and down to earth! Not ONCE trying to make a quick sale, but actually took the time to converse and get to know you. :)

Hi, Lou. ::)
I know. It seems too cold for it to be a true story, but that's exactly what happened. No BS!

I don't think they make Polaroid cameras anymore---I think they stopped making the film...
Isn't he in his 60s? Come on now, shit...he will be the Adam West of bbing.
He needs to come out with the Hulk Juicer or Big Lou's Metabolism Pills....

I know. I will admit I saw ONE person actually take the offer and buy it.

There should be a stand at those places where you can kick Lou in the balls for only 20 bucks a kick. He could use the money to have some more implants.
-
Didn't The Hulk go into syndication? So wouldn't he get paid off of that? One could have a modest living, and he could push his fat kid into being a weight trainer...
Nobody wants to see Lou at Comic Con, they want to see Ian Welling, Kristina Kruek, or the dude who plays Lex, Lionel, Green Arrow, or Sam and Dean Winchester. Or Spock, or Scotty, or Capt. Jean Luc Picard, or Capt Kirk.

Wow! I had low expectations opening this thread, but Lou outdid himself. That's just sad.

Low expectations for Lou or low expectations for Lou outdoing himself...
You know, he could do a date site inspired by Mad TV's "Lowered Expectations", he could call himself Low Expectations Lou. And he could give a fake background story that his father used to call him that.

I know Lou sets the bar awfully low for himself, but this latest episode just seems awful. A kid in a wheelchair!? Really? Just no words...

20 dollars is 20 dollars, a perverse type of "monetary" equality. Just like that paperboy in "Better Off Dead", "2 DOLLARS!" is 2 dollars and he went thru that whole movie trying to get it, he didn't care...
Lou's the type of guy who would go to the cancer wing of a hospital and talk to a kid and say, "If you think losing your hair is bad, try losing to Arnold, and he made money off of it."

lou was a handicapped kid and he still talks about Arnold snubbing him and his dad when he was a teen and the olympia was in New York. he knows how it feels, he should be a little more understanding.
-
When Lou asked me for $20, I pulled down my pants and pissed all over him.
Totally ruined his Green body paint.

He needs to sit down with Dr.Phil...Lord knows he'd charge more than 20 dollars, or he can log on to Getbig, and get analyzed for free!
Lou looks at everybody as a potential $20 bill...wheelchair or not, blind or not (like the md will know who is taking a picture with).

My buddy was at a comic store grand opening and Lou was there to sign and meet and greet.....my buddy got there late.....45 minutes before the meet and greet was suppose to end.....so he walks up to Lou and shkes his hand and was hoping to get a pic.....He said Lou wasn't rude....but certainly didn't act like he wanted to be there.....interesting to me because the owner flew Lou in and paid him to make an appearance.....it was literally 4 hours out of Lou's day.....and with 45 minutes to go before ending the autograph session....Lou is giving the people in line the impression that he could care less about being there.....I don't get it???? Why does he conduct himself this way???
I want to give the guy the benefit of the doubt....but I keep hearing these stories over and over.
Sad......because I was a huge Hulk fan as a kid.....now I hear that Lou is a horses ass out in public.
-
^^Here is the thing, Lou makes his money off of Comic Cons, comic store openings and bbing conventions...he probably is booked more with the Comic cons and store openings...he probably is pissed...imagine telling your wife, "Well, I'm off to grand opening at Starz Comic Shop in Philly, PA!" and that's all he does...whereas you has a chick like Kim Kardashian who had made millions off her "brand".

louie is best preserved 6 ft under ground
-
I think Lou trains celebrity clients. It was well documented that he trained Michael Jackson during his final months....
I've always wondered, is this guy really so broke that he STILL has to do store signing appearances?
He many have money management issues, greed issues....who knows.
Doesn't change the fact that instead of receiving lifetime achievement awards at the Arnold, he should be regularly called out for his socially and emotionally stunted demeanor.
-

He is a bitter bastard. The best thing he ever had going for him (duh) was David Banner and the Incredible Fuck.
Other than that, he spent a life of envy. He envied all of Arnold's capability and success and spent a lifetime trying to compete with it.
Then he may have tried to lay a "claim to fame" by trained a deluded Dilaudid dying pedophile.
I think Louie even tried to sue his brother over the color green.
Probably doesn't help that he has a speeth impethiment that maketh him thound retarded and such. Whatever.
I suppose he is trying to gain royalties off of anything and everything that might have been associated with the Incredible Hulk- halloween costumes, action figures, failed used T.V series vids, the wrong color of green.... boogers...
Who cares? Nobody is thurprithed at what a jackath he ith. And such a great cameo in "I love you man" - I mean, that was all about him right? Ha ha.

Who'd want to be known as the trainer who trained Michael Jackson before he died? Better yet, who'd want the trainer who trainer Michael Jackson before he died?
And everytime he acts in a film, a tv show, or a commerical spot, he always has his brow furrowed and has that "stare"...

I'll take the under and venture to guess that Lou could have made the kids day in less than 60 seconds

Aaron Rogers Approved
-
Isn't Lou an Honorary Sheriff or something? Someone should get a hair sample from Lou and do a complete drug test from it. And if it comes up dirty for steroids and coke, post the results online and get a petition going for him to turn in his badge.

Exactly! Now granted, Lou did have a notice saying it was $40 to take a picture with him, but geezus! It was just the way he reacted to a kid - in a wheelchair no less. I mean nobody else was around waiting on him, aside from me, but I sure in hell wasn't gonna say, "Hey! What about me? Can I get one?"
I was just flabbergasted by the whole thing. Is he THAT hard up for money that he couldn't for one second make an exception to his "rule". Whatever. It is what it is. Just goes to show that no one gets mercy from this jerk... not even a wheelchair bound kid!

Que the clip of Arnold owning him at this years ASC. Lou what are you doing here? Selling pictures? Classic Arnold

Oddly enough I saw at a scifi convention in Toronto and there were plenty of people snapping and filming away and he didn't see to care.
A couple of people even stood next to where he was sitting and were photographed without paying him a cent.
Off day?.

1.Hates Lou
2.Standing in line to ask a question of a guy he hates that could likely be researched on the internet
3.Just happens to be there when Lou denies taking a photo with a kid. Add to the picture to be more dramatic, a kid in a wheel chair.
4. Outraged by the diss, he still asks the mundane question
5. Inspite of obviously painting a story in which he comes off at best as a kiss ass who asks a question just to be talking to a "celebrity" he makes a poor attempt at a save by ignoring Lou's attempt to sell a picture.
All in all...could this have happened? Sure, there was nothing supernatural about the story that would require us to suspend logic.. but did it likely happen? No.
Just my personal opinion based on hearing BS stories for over 20 yrs.

Arnold still owns Lou after all the years, Lou clearly is nervous around him in that video.

There is an earlier thread about this vid. It's the epic winner-loser thing. Arnold knows everybody's watching, so he doses his poison with perfection. Guy's an asshole, but a king at it.

I never get tired of that video, hilarious!

LOL @ Arnold owning Louie yet again. ;D
Lou's obviously wearing a earpiece, so there is no excuse for him acting like a jerk to fans because he is deaf and supposedly can't hear them. ::) Everytime I've seen Lou in person he's acted like an angry jerk to the fans and only smiles after he's paid $20. Pathetic.
