JayHawk and I trekked out to Cincinnat (OH) for the Brian Pillman Memorial Show. Before the night of wrestling, we met several of the wrestlers during the meet-and-greet session. Then we settled in for a great night of up close action in the small gym.
Near the end of the night, Diamond Dallas Page entered the ring and started to thank everyone and talk about the late Brian Pillman. In his opening statement, he pointed to JayHawk and proclaimed him to be wearing the best shirt there. He motioned for JayHawk to stand up, which he did, soaking up a bit of applause.
As evident in the Friendly Encounter post, JayHawk was wearing a Cactus Jack shirt. (For those unfamiliar with pro wrestling, Cactus Jack was an earlier days in-ring persona of Mick Foley).
I never saw the dvd of that Pillman event. I don't even know if one exists. I do know that if there is one, JayHawk is certainly on it!
