Georgie..here is my latest LOTR review for May 30, 2009. Like a fine wine, LOTR gets better with the years.
I have to wonder if the economy played a factor, for right off the bat, the vendor room did not seem as crowded as in years past. The ability to get near to stars like Jimmy Snuka, Bob Holly, the FBI and others was almost instant. One of the bigger surprises was seeing one of the Bushwhackers in attendance and in quasi-ring gear. I will also add that Nidia from Tough Enough fame looks incredible. A new nose, some new...well, whatever, and a ton of lost weight makes her look terrific!
As for the LOTR SuperTicket guests, all were more than friendly. Lex Luger looked better than expected but much slower and thinner than in the past. Again, it seems as the years go by, the wrestlers seem to truly apprecaite the kind words and memories you share with them. Billy Jack Haynes could barely stand from his knee problems, but went out of his way to make everyone happy.
Then..the ICON Sting! What can I say? He was super to the fans, adding whatever you wanted to his signature and was in full costume. It was worth every bit of the $100 per ticket. Kudos to Terrance and James..they've done it again!
Vince Gagliardi
Vince, my photographer Bob said, because it was spread out in a couple of rooms, it was much better. Not as crowded, and run much better that way. That is the reason it probably looked like a smaller crowd. I haven't heard from James or Terrance yet with the attendance, I'm sure we will have more reports tomorrow. Georgie
Also waiting for your photos....
