For all the 'older' wrestling fans like me.

The Animal throwing out a first pitch the way only he can.

75 years old and still going strong. :-)

Awesome video. Too bad only the other older-40’s (at least) out there would appreciate it, though.

Loved Mean Gene’s commentary when Animal would eat ring post

I remember watching all his matches on Saturday mornings. That Flying Hammerlock move of his was a killer!

He is actually a very intelligent man and I believe he possesses a number of degrees.

Ric Flair threw out the first pitch at Busch Stadium once, and he was almost as wimpy as Obama. I was shocked!
