You’ve seen him from a distance; Wednesday, you can see him up close: Hulk Hogan will be making a meet and greet appearance at the on Route 9 in Lacey.

From 6 to 8:30 p.m., the star who many credit with putting professional wrestling on the map and making it mainstream will be signing autographs at the restaurant.

“The Forked River Sports Bar is getting a shot of HULKAMANIA April 25th from 6 to 8:30. pm let's rock the place,” he tweeted on Friday, encouraging fans – Maniacs, as they’re known – to come out for the event.

It’s the fourth in a series of meet-and-greets the restaurant has hosted. Previous celebrities have included former Mets Darryl Strawberry and Mookie Wilson. To get any item signed is $99, and a photo with Hogan is $150.
