Why do some many pro-wrestlers live in Tampa, FL?

[AAP]

I see that the late Hercules Hernandez lived there.

But why? What is the appeal to Tampa? It is sort of a Midwest town. Nothing to do there. Very boring. Golf courses, but not much else.

Just think of how many of the other wrestlers (who died) that resided there. Hawk of LOD, etc..

My aunt lived in Vero Beach and styled the Red Rooster's hair. I think wrestlers live all over south/central Florida, wasn't aware of any Tampa connection, though.

Cheap land/property...No state income tax...Beautiful weather...Great golf courses...Many of them travel 300+ days of the year so they're really never at home, anyway

I would love to know the real story on WTF happened to him.

Back in the Powers Of Pain days... man he was a monster. Remember when they challenged the Road Warriors to a benchpress competition and were blowing up 500 lbs like it was nothing.
