Brian Adams was a big man, with a big smile, and even bigger hugs. He was so kind and friendly to me. My best memories of him were his humor. He could always make me laugh. That shines through in this interview with Billy Jack Haynes and CJ O'Malley on the wrestling radio talk show from March of 1996.
This blog is for my memories of Portland Wrestling and yours. The years being a fan were some of the best years of my life!

Not sure why we are putting quotes around "STEEL" for the steel cage.
I'm pretty sure it wasn't made of licorice!
See below for the poster for the program and photos from this event.

Happy Birthday, Brian Adams(4/14)
Happy Birthday, Brian Adams(4/14). In the 80s we always thought it was in January, so that's when I think about his birthday. He'd have been 63 this year. He gave the best big bear hugs.
1. At the Tillamook Armory 19902. June 1991
3. Watching the main event with the boys.
4. His last appearance at the Sports Arena, 1993.
5. From his time in Japan.
6. Me with Steve Doll and a goofball photobomb! 1990
7. Brian and I in 1988.
8. Random shot of the Midnight Soldier, not sure why I included that!
9. Brian in the OWF at the Oregon City Civic Center.
