      I was there too. Weird feel. There were about 18k in the Vet. However, that stadium could seat about 60k. Dont get me wrong, one of the most memorable events I ever attended. Just a strange feeling to have more than half the place empty and a country music concert to boot. I loved the Flair Hawk angle btw. Young enough to think that we may be lucky enough to see a title change.

    Dinner Theater Wrestling, or DTW, was founded by Larry "The Bardarian" Olivier-Shakespeare in 1990 after he crushed his longtime rival Ham Scenechew at the Barter Theatre in Bristol, TN in a steel-stage match. After a successful string of invasions at Medieval Times locations throughout the South (and a failed coup at Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede in Pigeon Forge), the Bardarian accumulated a ragtag band of wrestling-actors, "performance artists," and live-action role-players (LARPers) that would act as the fledgling promotion's initial roster.

      First time I ever had a cornish hen was at Dixie stampede. Of course since I was only 10 or 11 I didn't know that's what it was called until I described it to my mother and she told me. I just thought of it as a whole chicken instead of just pieces.

The hookers are gone & gentrification changed that part of the city over the last 6-7 yrs.. Use to be the straight “hood” & this was during the heart of the DC’s crack-era so I could only imagine 🤣🤣🤣🤣But there’s still a cast of characters sprinkled in that area tho 🤣🤣..

    Regarding the empty stadium show in Memphis. Why didn't Dusty try to work with Jarrett & Lawler for that show? If the idea is a different challenger for each Bash show, why not do Lawler vs Flair for the title at the Liberty Bowl? Around 1:04:00
    In July of 1986, with that strong Crockett undercard, they could've absolutely sold that stadium out had they partnered with Jarrett.

    The Sole problem with the GAB tour was "PROMOTING IT" (ironically). For the 7/1/86 Philadelphia Veterans Stadium show, the attendance number was pretty much the exact number they would have drawn in the Civic Center. They never promoted via newspaper, radio or tv news. The ONLY promoting they did was the local UHF channel WPHL 17 which broadcasted their syndicated World Wide Wrestling. Dusty Rhodes himself said he failed to act on using celebrity or major media to push the product the way McMahon did.

      Probably but who cares?, today's show was fucking brilliant Jim is in his wheel house talking about great great wrestling from when it was actually good, my eyes rolled when he said he was going to react to AEW next week. I wish he wouldn't, modern day wrestling just completely fucking sucks I don't watch it and I don't want to hear about this shit either, the whole premise of the JCE is Jim using his amazing knowledge to talk about days gone by wrestling not the shit they churn out now days. Plus i very much doubt Bret would say he isn't a professional wrestler and that it's all stupid and fake anyway and I guarantee you he never took a bump for the invisible man or wrestled with his hands in his fucking pockets.

      I'm sorry, I can't remember... Is Bret Hart a talentless, useless, mud show twat? As an all time great Hart treated the fans, and more importantly the business, with the utmost respect. What he says now, and the terms that he would use to describe what he did for a living, are entirely irrelevant
