There are so many wrestlers that gave me fond memories in Bay Area wrestling history. Sometimes when you sit down and actually try and think about the past someone will creep up on you and give you a memory that you haven’t thought about in years. Wrestling on Wed nights in Sacramento at the memorial auditorium and Thursday nights at the channel 40 studios. Then watching wrestling on TV every Saturday evening and if I was lucky a trip to SF to see wrestling at the Cow Palace. These are memories of my childhood and young adulthood. When wrestling was really classic and the memories were kayfabe. I would like to thank all the wrestlers who I got to view wrestling . They were special memories.

NEXT MONTH:

A trip down kayfabe memory lane with Ray Stevens and Pat Patterson and other great Tag Teams from the San Francisco booking office.
