A local urban legend

Every city has its own urban legends. There's one about Huntington that I have to ask about, or at least how it could have started.

I keep hearing that former wrestler Sgt. Slaughter (Robert Remus) has or had a daughter who attends/attended Marshall, and he is/was a frequent customer of Home Depot at Merritt Creek Farm.

Is this really true? And if not, how did it get started?

It's like the Point Pleasant mothman was really (name withheld; he would neither confirm nor deny when I asked him a few years ago), a well-known person of that area who decided to have some fun on Lover's Lane, and the legend grew from there.
