A good time had by all..

I went to ringside today in New York . I had blast today.  I started the day by meeting Ric Flair he is the most caring wrestler you can ever meet he did arrive a little late but after he signed autographs he made it up to all his fans when he answered questions at his Q and A sessions he stayed until each fan had there question answered now I now why so many people including myself consider Flair one of the best wrestlers ever.
 
I been to a lot of wrestling autograph sessions and I must say today was the best autograph session I have ever been to. It is like a dream come true that I finally got the chance to meet Ric Flair.  Ric Flair looked very happy and wanted to be at Ringside Fest, to see all of his fans that supported him through over the years.
 
At the Q & A  session Flair was very open about his career and at the same time very emotinal through out the Q &A session. You can tell Flair does miss the business with a passion. Flair also admitted Ricky Steamboat was his best opponent in his career and Arn Anderson was his favorite tag team partner. These were questions asked by fans that attended the Q & S session.  It was a great moment that I will never forget.
 
Ric also mentioned that his son Reid is training and will be in the ring in about one year. Flair made a very good point to all the new ones who want get into the wrestling business. If Flair never heard of your trainer then your trainer is NO GOOD!  Flair stated  you can pick up the phone and call either two places Nashville to Jeff Jarrett or Connecticut to John Laurinaitus to get the proper training. Flair went on and on about the ladies.
Now onto Road Warrior Animal he looked very happy and wanted to be at Ringside Fest and he talked about his son breaking into the business and how his son is getting drafted next year into to NFL. Road Warrior Animal wants his son to play football and complete that first then get into the wrestling business. At the Q & A session a fan asked Road Warrior would you ever see your son becoming a wrestling and reforming The Road Warriors again in the memory late Road Warrior Hawk and Animal stated he would need to get the approval from his mom and it be an honor to be tag team partners with his son. Road Warrior let me take a picture with his shoulder pads which was really cool.
Last but not least Eric Bischoff. Eric is probally the most honest and true person I meet.  He tells it how it is and he is very truthful with every person he came in contact with.
