Graham Harrell, if you see this, it was an honor to play against you in 2002 & 2003 in HS. Texas Stadium was a hell of a venue. Respect to both you and your father. Also..Matthew.
Been a wrestling fan for over 40 years. The highlight of my "career" as a wrestling fan was the night Ric Flair called me fat boy! PS, he wasn't wrong...I weighed over 400 lbs at the time. LOL! Wooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!
@oj lott This was actually prior to Nitro or Raw. It was at a WWE (then still WWF) TV taping in Green Bay, WI in the early 90's. Flair took on Hart for the WWF title in the main event. I was in the front row, and Flair called me fat boy twice (the second time, he made like he was going to get out of the ring and get me). It was awesome. The two big things that happened that night were Doink turning on Krush, and The Nasty Boys beating Dibiase and IRS for the tag team titles (only to have the decision reversed a few minutes later).
@oj lott Actually, Hart was already champion that night. He was defending against Flair. It was supposed to be a cage match, but they ended up just having a regular match. Hart did win though. I shook his hand afterwars. I remember being surprised that he was as big as he was. He looked smaller to me on TV, but at the time, he was a pretty good sized dude.
It’s so hard for me to sit back here in this studio, looking at a guy out here, hollering my name!-When last year I spent more money, on spilt liquor, in bars from one side of this world to the other, than you made! You’re talking to the Rolex wearing, diamond ring wearing, kiss stealing, whoa! wheelin dealin’, limosuine riding, jet flying son of a gun and I’m having a hard time holding these alligators down! - Ric Flair
I was a stagehand for many years in Philly. One night I was working a WWF show. I go to walk into catering to get dinner. As I walk I the door, Flair walks out and we literally bump into each other. Growing up, Flair was my favorite. I wanted to say, "Hey Ric, gimmie a Whoo", but the only words I could get out were, "excuse me, sorry Ric".
Greatest Ric Flair story: My brother bumps into him in a gas station he says to him "Hey, You're Ric Flair" Ric Flair responded with "I know" then got in his car drove away
