Rep Power: 28 | GumGod.com's Wrestle Reunion Recap Quote: |
Originally Posted by GumGod.com Sunday morning came and Nash was scheduled for the early morning signing session.

At 9am the scheduled start of the signing, the promoters of the show brought all the fans into the main ballroom, some of whom looked like they were standing in line for quite awhile, and sat us down in chairs. Fritz stayed off to the side in order to hopefully line up some future interviews for his show. Meanwhile, Jimmy Olsen and I decided that throughout the event we would interview the fans around us, to find out where they came from, how they heard about the Reunion and who they most wanted to see. The guy next to Olsen was from West Virginia. He heard about the event from a website I'm not familiar with and was really excited to see guys like Tully Blanchard and Dusty Rhodes. Basically, a normal wrestling fan.
Then there was the guy next to me.
First of all, this guy (maybe he was 26? 27?) had a suitcase with him full of wrestling belts. A suitcase so big it wouldn’t fit in the overhead bin of an airplane. When I was following this kid into the main ballroom, he stopped two chairs ahead of me and gave his suitcase of belts their own chair. Like I could make that up. As Jimmy Olsen was talking to the guy next to him, I heard the guy next to me talking. When I looked over I made a startling discovery.
The guy was talking to his belts. The guy was talking to his belts. So help me God the guy was talking to his belts! | Has your freind and mine, Monsieur Bouchie, been visiting Florida recently???
