Today is G’Pa Hack’s Bday. Jim Hackleman is and always has been a very important part of The Pit. Jim, or grandpa hack as he is fondly known, works out at The Pit six days a week. The Fight team, the TapOut crew, everyone at The Pit watches in amazment as Jim can row, throw the medicine ball, or push the wheelbarrow up the PIT HILL like someone half his age (he turns 83 today). Superstars like Chuck Liddell, Matt Lindland, The Tapout Crew all know him well as G’Pa Hack. G’Pa supports the gym by showing up at all Pit events, attends all local and semi local fights (when a Pit fighter is competing), and he is a great representitive of what The Pit is truly about. G’Pa hack is a true warrior, and he is, and always has been a great father to me…. Happy Birthday Dad I love you

The example & standard that you set is something of a privilege for us all to have and be close to. I feel very lucky to have been able to look up to you for so long. I hope that you are as proud of yourself as we all are of you.
Happy Birthday Grandpa-We all love and appreciate you.
