Sammy Hagar recently shared a humorous birthday video on Instagram. The video shows himself lying on the grass surrounded by mushrooms.
The rock legend captioned the video with a playful question about his birthday gift.
“What do you get the man that has everything for his birthday?” Hagar wrote in the caption.
The post drew attention from fellow musician Michael Anthony. He commented on the video asking about Hagar’s consumption of the mushrooms.
“Sambo, how many of those did you eat???” Anthony asked.
Hagar’s response was characteristically humorous and brief.
“I don’t remember,” he replied.
The video implies that Hagar received magic mushrooms as a birthday present. The footage captures the aftermath of his celebration.
The lighthearted social media post comes as Hagar celebrates his birthday with his signature multi-night extravaganza in Cabo San Lucas.
