Oh! I went to the Wrestlemania Fanfest a couple years ago. I got to meet Bradshaw, Steven Richards (when he was still going as Stevie), Debra, Viscera, Pat Patterson, Jerry Brisco, and Bob Backlund. I saw a ton of other superstars, too, but I didn't get to meet them.
I gotta say, though. Bob Backlund is one of the coolest guys ever. He talked to me and my friends for a bit, before going to the showcase ring and working the crowd. He provided entertainment while we waited for a Crash/Taka match. Everyone was booing him except for us, and when Bob left, he gave me and my friends a thumbs up. The crowd had no idea why he was so nice to us, but insulted the rest of them.

Wow... you met Bob Backlund??? Legends are all around us. It's strange though, Terri Runnels lives in this town. Anyway... I remember when people told me I looked like The Rock... I guess that explains why that one girl at school that's crazy for The Rock dedicated most her time trying to convince me to go out with her. Too bad it didn't work.

Anyway... I remember at the house show how so many people arrived. I was so sad to think back and see we booed Mr. Perfect when he arrived. I didn't feel guilty at first, but I do now.
But we got to see Ric Flair knock Undertaker with a chair, though it was executed and done so cornily. Cat fights were nice... and the intensity was great. Watching Kurt Angle mess up on that one move he does where he runs to the opponent on the top turnbuckle, and then overhead suplexes them off. He messed up, and Kane landed on him. But Kane won the match with a Chokeslam. It's so much better when you watch it in person.
But your WrestleMania fanfest experience sounds GREAT!!! Watching Crash and Taka... whatever happened to him anyway? Two light-heavyweights, that's pretty awesome! Anyway... I guess that's practically the only wrestling experience I've had. Now... I just RP for Efeds and backyard wrestle (it's too fun NOT to do it... the warnings just make you wanna do it more).
