Right. That would make sense because I didn't see ever that side of him. I I saw a side where he demanded um, you know, um loyalty um and heard those stories, you know, uh how Gary Player called up and said, Oh, Mr. Hogan, I'd love to come over and uh study with you and uh have some lessons, and he said, uh, you know, Mr. Player, who who do you work for? And he said, uh, I work for Dunlop. And Hogan said, Well, I would suggest you call up Mr. Dunlop and go have a lesson with him. And so Hogan said he hung up the phone and and never heard from him yet.
