My seat was only 4 rows from the mats. Buchanan & AJ start wrestling. Someone behind me, who wasn’t usually behind me is screaming wrestling advice to AJ, my freaking ear is burning.
It’s daddy and Angelo. Dad did most of the yelling but Angelo was also coaching. I guess I can understand rooting for my brother over my teammate.
They get up and leave after the match. I look back and there are a dozen people in an altercation. No fist fight from what I could tell and it broke up after about 5 minutes.
That’s my interesting story.

Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. They are the Ball family of wrestling.

Saw Sammy Sasso on SEPTA yesterday, he was signing autographs.
Just got back from Xfinity Live - there was a PSU alumni event after today’s session. It’s a nice afternoon so lots of people outside - Zain, Morgan and Matt Mccutcheon among others at a table.
It should be an exciting night with a new points record.

Morgan has been at every session so far. Zain at all but this afternoon. They’re enjoying themselves but also really into the wrestling. Varner and Dake too. The non starters on the team are having a blast. A lot of personalities in that group

This is the environment Cael created. Guys with selfish personalities like AJ don’t fit.

Did you ever find out what caused the skirmish? It might have been fans/families of Iowa wrestling.

No, I never found out but all I know is that daddy and Angelo were in the middle of it.
Happened right after AJ got beat.
The dad was screaming in my ear, constantly telling AJ what to do.
