RE: 30 for 30: The Nature Boy Ric Flair
those were the best of wrestling times weren't they? I want to say that WWF must have been on cable or something because we didn't get those matches. I certainly would have watched them otherwise. We were still operating on the manually changed channels on an 800 lb television that once you parked it, that is where it stayed forever (and these things never broke either... what happened?)
However, you couldn't be alive in the 80's and not know who Andre and Savage were so yeah, I loved them too... just didn't get to see their matches often.
Another benifit of living so close to Atlantic City and Philly. They had matches here all the time and considerably cheaper than today even when considering inflation. Yea...anchor TV’s .. they never broke! Except when they were thrown at you by Andre!! Hehe. My first place we got a Sony TV (over paid) was heavy as S@&T. Took two of us struggling to get it up several flights of steps. I think we just left it in the apartment when we moved from there. Lol. Probably still there.
