The guy who was Mankind in wrestling. He had subbed for Mark Marin on AAR the pass two days. I think he has a future in radio if he would ever want it. He continues to be a well spoken individual.

3. We met Mick Foley once at Hersheypark |
|
I was with my Nephews doing the rollercoasters at Hersheypark in early May a few years ago. Mick Foley happened to be on the same coaster as we were. My nephews wanted to meet him and waited by the gate til he got off with his family.
I told my nephews to not be too much of a pest since it seems that he was doing the family thing at Hershey, but he was nice enough to say hello to my nephews and pose for a picture.
Great guy!

I wouldn't have known who he was if my nephews weren't with me.

6. He's a good looking guy... |

In spite of the beating he has taken, and lawdy, he has taken a beating. That said, the really attractive thing about him is his quick and agile mind. He seems to have a real graspop of issues, down to the minutiae.
Does anyone know what his educational background is?
Foley has a bright future, away from wrestling. How rare. An awful lot of wrestlers end up as bouncers in Tampa Titty Bars, once the career fades.
On edit: I hope he's dropped a few pounds.

LOL! That answers a lot. That was one whacked-out campus, back in the 70s.
