Whatever Happened to Fred “The Ogre” Palowaski from Revenge of the Nerds?
I’ll tell you what happened to Ogre. He was just in one of the worst movies of all time: Hancock. The guy has ballooned to at least 300 lbs and looks crazier and scarier than ever. His real name? Donald Gibb. That’s nearly as bad as Fred Palowaski. I would love it if this guy were related to the Gibb clan of the Bee Gees.
I know he’s the Ogre and all, but you just can’t mention this guy without talking about his role in Bloodsport. I love when the weirdly large Chinese guy says “OK USA!” and Gibb copies it to Van Damme. That and when Chong Li paralyzes him. Serves him right for talking all that trash.
So I guess this article wasn’t really a “Whatever Happened to” as much as a “Look at the size of this guy now.” P.S. He’s almost 54 years old.
Frederick!

MAN, bloodsport had the freaking cheesiest dialogue of ANY movie, and the acting was soooo damn bad. not even van damme could save that movie.
no that it matters but Ogre’s name was Brad Palowaski not Fred, and the original Revenge of the Nerds is classic, too bad the sequels blew!
He’s in a new Capital One commercial, plays a HUGE Viking.
