I remember the time his pants were ripped off in a match and he was wearing silk Gator boxer shorts. Here is a pic with spurrier when the ole ball coach was still at Florida:

really good book.he suffered a lot of tragic stuff there in a short period such as owen dying,the stroke,the montreal screw job,his father passing away,etc. they say stu hart used to get guys in the dungeon and all you would hear were screams.the ones that came kept coming back were the ones he knew had potential to wrestle.also never knew one of the british bulldogs was his brother in law.


Actually both of the British Bulldogs were Brett's brother's in law, Davey Boy was married to Brett's younger sister and Dynamite Kid (Davey Boy's cousin) was married to Brett's wife's sister. :lol: Davey Boy died on vacation in BC at 40 years old and Dynamite has been wheelchair bound for years I think. Can't believe how many wrestlers from that era have died so young like Davey Boy, Owen Hart, Brian Pillman, Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerraro, etc. (most heart/steriod or wrestling related)

Flair's a Pens fan?

I don't think so. You might want to go to a Canes game at the RBC Center and see who comes up on the screen yelling "WOOOOOOO" when the Canes score. Maybe he liked them before the Canes came to Raleigh.

He lives in Charlotte, and is a guest on the local/regional afternoon sports show quite frequently. He loves the Canes, and goes to games all the time.

It came right out of his mouth that he's a Pens fan.
