The announced crowds for those shows were 165,000 and 190,000, although the real numbers were about 150,000 and 165,000.

After the ninth grade, I left Minnesota to go to Wayland Academy in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin... [...] I lettered in three sports. I played middle linebacker and fullback on the football team, threw the shot put, and wrestled...
The "Woooo" started out short and clipped. It would later grow louder and longer.
Not only is Flair's daughter, Megan, set to give birth to her first child on May 9, two of his other children are excelling in high school athletics. Ashley Fliehr is one of the top volleyball players in North Carolina, while Reid Fliehr posted a 34-10 amateur wrestling record as a freshman.
I had a nice friendly breakfast with Rick Flair heading home soon

I want to be in the ring, but it will never happen again.

The Dirtiest Player in the Game also had six stints with the United States Title, which is enough to build a legacy on in and of itself
