    Andre The Giant

    I am watching a Biography on Andre the giant and it showed two pics of him riding a Big Red. I thought that was kinda cool. The show was on A&E. Check it out if you can catch a re-run.

    LOL I know. He was huge, he weighed over 500 pounds before he died. Thats about twice the weight of the Big Red.

    I read Hulk Hogans book and it seemed like it mentioned in there about how much Andre liked riding the bigred around his place.

    Yeah, thats what they were saying. He like to ride it on his ranch to check on his long horns. I felt sorry for the guy. Also it was amazing how much he could drink.

    It would be interesting to find out where it is now. One of us may own it, and not even know.

    His ranch was in Ellerbe, NC.... My grandpa and I did some plumbing work on it after his death. They were getting the place ready for sale... Anyone ever seen gold faucet handles on a bathtub? My brag for the night....
