Never became a fan of the show, but I did see Lou Ferrigno at Chicago Comic-Con in 2006. It's kind of a given that he's a big guy...but, he's literally one of those people that their muscles and size seem too exaggerated to be real. It was a definite, "Eeep...", followed by an under-my-breath whisper, "(awesome!)".
Actually, if I was David Banner, I'd probably avoid caffeine, so no problem there.
I lived and died by that show when I was a kid. I got Ferrigno's autograph on a picture at Heroes one year and I was so intimidated I couldn't speak. He was trying to be friendly but, like bluemaxx said..."Eeep."
At his biggest, wasn't he around 315 pounds of solid muscle. That was around the time they were only making occasional TV movies and, damn, was he impressive.
I believe there was an episode in which David Banner told his companion at a restaurant not to order two cups of coffee, but one cup of tea and one cup of hot water instead; they could then use the bag twice (and thus save money). So I guess that Banner might have caffeinated tea, but he certainly wouldn’t pay Starbucks prices.
"I have to be there at fIIIIVVVEE!"
