Has anyone watched episode 2? It’s better than the first. It’s about Andy Kaufman.
OT: Tales from the Territory
- Thread starter PBRME
- Start date
Yes, it's outstanding. However, if they don't do one about the Tupelo concession stand brawl they're making a mistake. It was one of the most hardcore wrasslin brawls before the word hardcore was ever used.
I agree. The Tupelo concession stand brawl is legendary.
They can get 3 of 4 participants, but it does seem they've limited to who has been in the 1st 2 episodes from mempho, daddio
Yes....I would've loved to have seen "The Boogey Woogey Man", Handsome Jimmy Valiant. Superstar Bill Dundee too. Met the Superstar and David Schultz in a bar in Columbus, MS a few years back. Even sat and had a couple of brews with them. I didn't dare ask Schultz if "rasslin was real". Ask John Stossel how that turned out.
I've watched several of them and loved them all. I liked Jake the Snake talking about when he slapped Miss Elizabeth and the Macho Man's inlaws wouldn't let him come inside when he and Elizabeth went to visit because he hadn't taken up for her. Jake the Snake "You know them East Tennessee folks. Wrasslin is real! People are fake!" LOL
Watched it. I saw/heard the bulk of it already, but this filled in the start and end for me. Did love the add of cowboy Bill watts being a mark (as we all were).
Looks like episode 3 will move off of memphis.
