Took my kids out last night to eat at a place that was showing the WWE Vengance and while I can see my kids getting into that I can't believe that an adult could get into it. But to my amazment these people actually not only got into it but they actually thought that it was real!! Adults yelling and screaming over this stuff has made me shake my head all day...
 
I used to watch it all the time as a kid... back in the days of Andre The Giant, King Kong Bundy etc. I tried to start watching again a few years ago and just had no interest. I know a few guys in their 20's that watch it all the time and they think I'm nuts that I think it's stupid these days.

LoKy is right. I too watched the WWF-but stopped at about the time Macho Man Savage became the champion. I can't believe anyone watches that idiocy now, although I do think the Rock is a pretty cool guy in general.

My in-laws are from Indiana. I definitely believe that people there buy into the whole wrestling thing. It seems that the Indiana population is divided exactly in half. Half of the population is like NDChief (they can't choose a good football team to root for) in that they work a real job and provide for their family. The other half live in trailers and cut the sleeves off their shirts. If they have sleeves on their shirts. Anyhoo, it's this latter half that enjoys the wrestling. Thank God my in-laws are moving to C-bus this week.

I was in a sports bar in Lincoln, NE once while on business and was watching an NHL playoff game 7. I had come to this sports bar just to watch that particular game. A bunch of country bumpkins came in and demanded that they switch all the TV's in the area in which I was sitting to World Wrestling Federation. I was shocked not only that watching this was part of any Adult's life but even further that a group of them had actually made plans to get together in a bar to watch this nonsense. The bartender, who had just spent the last 20 minutes telling me how up and coming Lincoln was as an urban area, would have nothing to do with it and only agreed to switch one TV. This almost caused a fight before the dissappointed wrestling fans left to try another bar.

Another funny about this... when I talke to freinds that are still into this I always refer to it as the WWF. I always get funny looks because I forget to refer to it as the WWE. I just can't get used to the "E" part.
