I saw Mad Dog and Jesse ‘The Body’ Ventura live at the Sioux City Vet’s auditorium back around 1983 or so...

Geez, I remember this guy from when I was a kid. I remember Mad Dog, along with, Verne Gagne, and The Crusher.
My brother always watched wrestling. I hated it.

His sister was a wrestler, too. And she was pretty hot as I recall.

About the same time I saw them with Hulk Hogan and Jumpin’ Jim Brunzell in Minneapolis. I used to deliver the newspaper to Jumpin’ Jim. Got to meet Andre the Giant at his gym also, really great guys all of them.

The CLAW. I always did that move on my kids until they rolled on the floor laughing and begged for mercy.

Could you imagine a wrestler goose stepping around a ring nowdays?

Little sidenote....Raschke was his real name. He (in real life) was a schoolteacher and by all accounts was a helluva nice guy.
To: traderrob6
used to see him at state wrestling tourneys in the crowd.
he’s still alive.
at one Wrestlmania, Vichon had his fake leg ripped off and used as a weapon.

I thought “The Claw” was part of the Crusher’s schtick.
