Originally posted by abcnews.comHulk Hogan has moved his family to Miami Beach and put his mansion near Tampa on the market for a whopping $25 million.
The pro wrestler-actor, aka Terry Bollea, and his wife, Linda, moved last month to a new $12 million bayfront estate on Miami Beach so their children, Brooke, 18, and Nick, 15, could pursue singing and acting careers.

"I've got to downscale," he told The Miami Herald recently. "We'll head toward Miami like the Beverly Hillbillies."
The Beverly Hillbillies?! I guess Tampa is similar to the backwoods of Bugtussle?! I could be insulted if I lived there....

This makes sense. He was having problems with his neighbors in Tampa not so long ago, and Miami seriously caters to anyone with enough money or fame (not like any other city, right?). I wonder if his new house is out on Star Island, or if he bought a place in a more public, although undoubtedly still exclusive, area of the city.

I guess his grill wasn't selling enough to support the family. That was a funny episode of Hogan knows best to catch. I finally got to see the actual finished infomercial which almost sold me on a 150.00 grill. I'll buy anything from Billy Mays...NOT! Darn OxiClean!

When I was watching Hogan talking about his upcoming grill on The Tonite Show, I was actually thinking of getting one.
But at $150 ?
I'll pass.

I just went to the site and watched the nifty infomercial. Not one part of it is The Hulkster cutting a promo for his grill. It was your usual lame ass info-naration garbage. How can a man who made his name from talking not be the guy to hype his own product?

Well if you actually catch the full blown infomerical it's intercut with that voice over Billy Mays telling everything it does one like on the site. Then everything else has Hogan and his family in it with Mindy McCortney there to "yes it's good."
