Hundreds of Hulkamaniacs showed up Thursday morning – some hours early – in order to get a chance to meet Hulk Hogan when he visits Buffalo, NY on Monday to promote his new beer brand, Real American Beer.
Consumers Beverages on Clinton St. in Buffalo held an exclusive ticket giveaway event on Thursday, February 27, where the first 250 fans who purchased a case of Real American Beer secured their spot to meet the WWE Hall of Famer on Monday, March 3rd.
Buffalo fans running wild
As expected, Buffalo ran wild, and the demand was as intense as when Hogan faced Andre the Giant at WrestleMania III, with fans lining up well before the 11 AM start time, eager to get their hands on both the beer and the coveted ticket. Tickets went fast, selling out as quickly as those for the Bills’ recent undefeated home season.
“There were already dozens of people in line by 8 AM, and it filled up fast around 9 to 9:30,” said Chris H., a lifelong Bills fan who quipped, “Super Bowl!” when he got his ticket. “Then they let us into the store, and the line got pretty long. They started selling the tickets around 10:30 AM, probably to keep the line moving so it didn’t clog up the store.”
Real American beer responded to us on X, “See all you Real Americans there!”
See all you Real Americans there!
