the main event
Thanks to Alex Porta for spotting a flyer on a telephone pool because we ended up spending Friday night at a bingo hall in Brooklyn watching a sold-out "professional" wrestling match. The event was sponsored by Boy Scout Troop #996 and sold hamburgers for $1.50. The air was heavy with greasy smoke, tension and jubliation.
 Lucifer Darkside was a vicious winner of one of the first matches.  Lucious Lance pummels his opponent. Because of Lance's drag queen outfit, the crowd began chanting, "YOU - ARE - GAY!"  The fans getting anxious.  Down for the count.   Timothy Plasma took a beating by Creeper.   Southerner Ron Price was an instant villian wearing a noose like a necktie and a Confederate flag T-shirt.  Tony Blaze, the Puerto Rican favorite, gets locked in a hold by the Southerner.  Boricua Tony Blaze prevails to the excitement of the crowd.  She wasn't a fan of Ron Prices confederate antics.  The winner of a previous match signs autographs.  AC Smooth and Grindal left their marks.  The final match was between Tiberias and the favorite, a 425 pounder called MadDog. They fought in a steel cage.  Tiberias's flying antics were not match for MadDog's size.  MadDog took on two more rogue opponents after defeating Tiberias and still reigned victorious.  And the crowd went wild.
