Chris Murphy’s Son Hearts Hulk Hogan
Like a lot of little boys, Chris Murphy’s young son Owen is a big fan of super heroes.
So when the boy celebrated his 4th birthday, Murphy’s mother dug out all of the old action figures Chris Murphy used to play with as a kid.
“I had lots of Supermans, Batmans and Wonder Womans and Robins and this is actually true,” Chris Murphy told the crowd at last week’s Crocodile Club luncheon. “The only action figure that my son has wanted to play with for the last two weeks is this one: Hulk Hogan, vintage 1984 Hulk Hogan.”
Murphy held up the toy as the crowd laughed. “I understand that Linda’s got a lot of people on her staff but I have no idea how she got my son Owen on the payroll.”
