A Georgia woman was arrested Saturday after she pulled a gun on a pro wrestler during a match, authorities said.
Patricia Anne Crowe, 59, was a spectator at the American Wrestling Federation event in Ringgold on June 4, the Catoosa County Sheriffs Department said.
Crowe said in a police report that she let her temper get the best of her when she confronted wrestler Paul Lee, his manager and the shows commissioner. Northwest Georgia News reported that deputies arrested Crowe after she jumped into the ring and pulled the gun on Lee.
Lee was in the middle of a match with a wrestler known as Iron Mann and was in the middle of hitting him with a chair.
I had him tied up and was beating on him, and this lady jumps up with a knife, cuts him loose, and then pulled a loaded gun on me, Lee said. She had that thing loaded with one in the chamber and the safety off. All it would have taken was for her to get shaky with that thing and it could have fired.
Lee said the woman had been to shows before and should have known it was all part of the act.
Shes been to several shows over the years off and on, but she was acting like a nut Saturday night, Lee added.(snip)
Lee said Crowe got angry after he told her to sit her toothless self back down.

I remember the olden days when THE GREAT BOLO (Al Lovelock) got into a great argument and fight with another wrestler on local Tulsa TV! They were gonna have it OUT with the BIG MATCH that week! Come on down and pay your money and watch this GRUDGE MATCH!
That week, in a very small blurb on the sports page of the Tulsa World, it was mentioned that THE GREAT BOLO was carried out on a stretcher.
He was Wrestling again the next week.
Speaking of which, how do we know she wasn’t also part of the act? Look for her to show up in tights in the ring, as the daughter of Haystack Calhoun.
“Act”? That’s just...un-American. “Act”...
Kayefabe lives! It’s the 50s again!
