As local celebrities go, former wrestling star Hulk Hogan is high on the list of fans who could stop by for smiles and selfies at a Bucs practice, as he did Tuesday morning.

Hogan posed with several players, and the Bucs promoted his appearance on social media. Eventually, he stopped and posed with Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston, who had stayed late both getting extra work on the field and signing autographs for fans.

We posted a photo of the two, perhaps not realizing how quickly it would make the rounds on Twitter, drawing every disbelief gif in the library in response.

Winston, of course, is trying to mend his reputation as he faces a three-game suspension to start the upcoming season for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy. A seven-month NFL investigation determined that he touched a female Uber driver in Arizona in March 2016 in an "inappropriate and sexual manner without her consent."

Hogan, adored by a generation of pro wrestling fans, has seen his share of negative headlines in recent years. In 2015, an audio tape of him using a racial slur was made public, and he also was involved in a sex tape that led to a multi-million-dollar lawsuit and settlement.

For some, that's not the kind of person Winston should be posing with, but other players were happy to do the same after practice, and the Bucs weren't shy about Hogan's presence.
