When I was younger my goal was to be a WWF wrestler. I wanted to be the next Ultimate Warrior, boy how times change and I have no desire to watch that stuff now.
I saw the Ultimate Warrior in person at Vets, I guess it was probably 1990 or 1991. Anyway we had four couples drive down from Ames and it was cold that night. So two of the guys and all the women went on in, but one guy and I went around to the back door to watch the wrestlers come in. They parked their rental cars back there. One car came to a stop right by the door and the trunk popped open and Ted DiBiase got out of the passenger side and Virgil his bodyguard got out of the drivers side. Then Virgil handed Ted his bag and parked the car. They carried their bodyguard act all the way out in the parking lot...it was hilarious.
Okay, here's the point to my story. There was a guy at the back door holding it open each time a wrestler would approach. Then all of a sudden he left, so I decided to hold the door for whoever came till I had to go inside. Who was that tag team , The Barbarian and some other guy, they wore these big furry suits. They FILLED the doorway when they went through. I think one of them is the father of the Ohio State linebacker???
Also I held the door for the Bushwackers and the Honky Tonk man. But the funniest thing that happened was when Dino Bravo, the stongest man in Canada came through. I said "good luck in your match tonight" and he said "Thank you very much!". I guess it doesn't seem so funny when I type it but I laughed my *** off as soon as he was out of earshot!!
I am sure this is the longest post I have ever written on any message board, and THIS has to be the topic?!?!?! :biglaugh:
