Do they come in threes?

So Ozzy was first …
Hulk Hogan yesterday …Do these things always come in threes?
They are kinda hitting hard which is weird … I’ve never been a fan of Black Sabbath … though I spent some of yesterday listening and wow I never really realised how good his voice was back in the day.
I also never got into the whole WWF or whatever it was / is called now WWE?
However both figures were and are pretty iconic … when two pass at the same time it just feels like it hits hard

Apparently so. I was always told that celebrity deaths always come in 3.
I wasn’t aware of this person, but jazz musician, Chuck Mangione passed away yesterday too, at the age of 84.I wasn’t really into Ozzy or Black Sabbath myself growing up (I grew up with The Eagles), but I knew the more popular hits, some of which I mentioned in the Ozzy thread https://caint.ie/post/31
WWF (World Wrestling Federation) became WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) in 2002 after a trademark dispute with the WWF (World Wildlife Fund).
As a wrestling fan, while Hogan was a major star for kids in the 80s/90s, after retiring from in-ring competition, his legacy was tarnished due to racist remarks and treatment of colleagues during the 80s/90s that wasn’t found out until afterwards.
He was for a period of time blacklisted from WWE and had his “WWE Hall of Fame” status removed after a conversation was leaked with him using slurs and derogatory comments about his daughter’s relationship.
You will see a lot of people ‘celebrating’ that he is gone now. -
Grew up with a mix of ABBA / The Beatles / Don Williams
and lots of classical music. Hit grunge around 95 … before that was just listening to whatever was on the radio I guess.I saw various things about Hogan and his comments … and saw various photos as well which were kinda shocking but … par for the course these days with celebrities I guess. As I never really followed him that much he was moer the WWF guy!
