Oh no! The Fabulous One himself? I vividly remember watching him on local wrestling shows in the late Sixties and early Seventies.

I actually saw Jackie in person in my home town shortly before he was defeated and had his head shaved by the ee-vil Al Greene in Memphis.

Of course, my favorite Fargo was his brother Roughhouse, who allegedly spent his time in a loony bin until Jackie got him out when a feud got really hot, and Roughhouse passed away five years ago this August.

RIP, Jackie.

He was a fixture here in Memphis. Saturday morning watching Lance and Dave call the rassling with my Grandpa are some favorie memories. He of course gave us the Fabulous Ones.

I would have guessed that he died years ago.
