I went to see Lou in Madison Squre Garden two years ago at a Sci-Fi show . I mainley went to see him and the people from Star Trec .After seeing the Star Trec people I walked over to Lou booth with my 7 year old son,he was so excited he was finally going to see the Incredible Hulk that I had spoke of so many times. I then dropped sixty bucks on a picture and DVD and his book. We then left pretty happy and headed off to eat at the famous Carmines restaurant in NY. After about one hour low and behold Lou walked in we were so excited, he however yelled at the girl taking reservations because she was moving to slow. He told her do you know who I am and she responded no, he then screamed at her and demanded to see the Manager. After a few minutes he was seated to our right and everthing seemed normal. We then finished dinner and started to leave ,I told my son lets say goodby to Lou as we approached his table I proudly had the book and DVD in my hand. I got to about ten feet of his table when my son bolted ahead of me all excited, he got within two feet of Lou when a big guy grabbed him by the arm and told him to get away. I then caught up and explained to him and Lou that we just saw him at the show and meekly held up my DVD and book. Lou then turned to me and told me to get the hell away from him , he said and I quote I am tired of you bastards always bothering me take your whining son and your skinny ass and get the hell out of here. To say the least I was appauled but also realized I would get pummeled If i did not leave, I then turned and headed for the door but before I reached it I saw a trash can under the front desk, I kindly asked the Matron to throw Lou DVD picture and book out in the garbage where it and Lou belongs. I can honestly say that I have never been treated in such a rude manner by anyone in my whole life Lou is nothing but a money hungry SOB and deserves everthing he gets.
I am sorry to say that my mother is dead, but thank you for that wonderfull compliment.
Eight years ago when I was 20 I went to the Arnold Classic and basked in the glory of Ferrigno.I was having an awesome time, as I had just fought my way to shake Arnold's hand when he was making his rounds, and had also spent a few minutes talking to Ralf Moeller. This was right around when that terrible Conan the Adventurer show was on, and I told Ralf that I had seen it a few times. He laughed and thanked me for staying up so late (I think it was on at like 1 or 2 am at the time). Then I came upon Lou's booth. I was a huge fan, as I had always felt sorry for him in Pumping Iron, and had also bought and read his book. I had brought it along in case I saw him because I wanted to ask him to sign it. I waited in line and finally walked up to the 'Incredible Hulk'.Me - Hey Lou! I'm a huge fan, could I get you to sign your book?Lou - (Turns to the other dude he was with) Did he pay? (Dude solmnly shakes his head no) Buy another copy of my book? (Points to stacked copies of the exact same freaking book I have in my hand.)Me - Uh, no Lou, I've got your book! Lou - Then buy a poster. Me - Uh, no thanks. I just wanted to know if you'd sign my book and maybe get a picture?Lou - (Points to sign) Picture 20 dollars. I then must have given him a nice WTF look because he moved on to the next person.That's when I realized that Lou is a greedy mongoloid POS.If I just read the stories, I'd be tempted to think that people were exaggerating about his arrogant a$$.But nope, he's earned his rep.
You stole my name.
Lou is a greedy pig, and should be treated like one.
Hahahahahahaha....I'd buy that book How much does it cost?
There goes this kid's allowance.
I read this morning that the case was ordered to go to mediation by a federal Judge. i wonder if Lou will show up painted puke green in a hulk outfit and growl at the judge.
kinda hard to scare the judge when your arms are only 16 inches.
now wait a minute you can't all start judging lou ferrignowhen you haven't even heard his side of the story becausethere's always a different side of the story.
