but they'll always be the Sheepherders to us!

 

WWF Comes To Portland - Match Line-Up & Photos - May 20, 1987 - I Got To Meet Matilda!

This was my first WWF show. I was chatting with DOA wrestler

 Sid Sylum about our first WWF shows, and I couldn't remember the card.  In those years, the shows were never televised and sometimes lacked the pizazz that WWF had on TV.  I honestly enjoyed a good ol' night at the Portland Sports Arena much more!  I was probably more thrilled to see Matilda

than anyone else on the card!  I took a picture with the Can Am Connection, 

but it didn't turn out! 😥

We hung around the parking lot after the show.  I didn't

get any British Bulldog autographs because I was too busy 

petting Matilda.  She was the real star!

I loved Miss Elizabeth and had a large poster of her on my wall.

I also liked Macho Man, but I remember thinking she could do better! 😂

 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.

Came across this gem and it's too cute not to share! Well Dunn as Muppets! It was from a podcast, but they didn't have nice things to say, so they aren't getting a tag. 🤬
