The only lighting was the spotlight on the ring, so I still couldn�t see anything outside of the ring. Of course, the house lights stayed down while Rocca and Perez made their grand entrance to the ring. I didn�t see the people until they cut the spotlights and brought the house lights up. This is no exaggeration. I�m not just saying this. My jaw actually dropped and I stood there with my mouth open. I thought, 'My God! I�ve never seen this many people in one place in my entire life.'" — from "Assassin: The Man Behind the Mask" by Joe Hamilton There has always been something special about attending an event in New York City — sporting events, theater, movies, concerts — and even though wrestling fans in the Northeast loved their local venues, when push came to shove, the one place they�d rather see wrestling than any other was Madison Square Garden. Contrary to popular belief, pro wrestling wasn�t always a big draw in the Garden, even though NYC was the number one media market in the world. There were decades when wrestling languished in the Garden and promoters lost money, but they continued to book the building because of the reputation that came with it, and since 1875, most of wrestling�s biggest attractions plied their trade in the building(s) at one time or another. For many years, the Garden was considered to be the wrestling Mecca, and many great moments in wrestling history took place with those walls, including: January 19, 1880 � William Muldoon beat Thiebaud Bauer to become the first world/American Greco-Roman heavyweight champion. May 17, 1963 � Bruno Sammartino beat Buddy Rogers to win the WWWF heavyweight title. July 24, 1971 � Bruno headlined a card against Blackjack Mulligan and drew the first-ever $100,000 gate in New York. October 17, 1983 � Jimmy Snuka dove off the top of a cage surrounding the ring and splashed onto a prone Don Muraco. January 23, 1984 � Professional wrestling became "sports entertainment" when Hulk Hogan defeated the Iron Sheik for the WWF heavyweight title. December 28, 1984 � David (Dr. D) Shultz slapped reporter John Stossel during a segment of 20/20. March 31, 1985 � The first WrestleMania drew 19,121 fans, about 3,000 less than what was considered a sellout in the �60s and �70s, but the event was seen by more than one million viewers on closed-circuit television, a record at the time. The genesis of this book came about when wrestling historian Fred Hornby shared his scrapbook of MSG newspaper articles with Scott Teal, the owner of Crowbar Press. Today, 17 years after a listing of the matches was published in magazine form, Scott and J Michael have updated their work and added the history of the battles promoters waged against each other behind the scenes as they fought for control of the pro wrestling business in New York City. This is the story of pro wrestling�s power brokers, from Jack Curley to the man who controls the wrestling business today � Vince McMahon, Jr. Included, when available, are attendance and gate figures, match stipulations, match run times, wrestlers real names and aliases, and statistics, all laced with 355 classic images from the Crowbar Press files. Finally, many wrestling legends who appeared in the Garden share stories and memories about the arena, including Don Leo Jonathan, Don Fargo, Joe Hamilton, Sailor Art Thomas, Archie Gouldie, Buddy Colt, Ivan Koloff, Susan Green, Don Jardine, Stan Hansen, Jack Brisco, Mick Foley, Tony Atlas, James J. Dillon, and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. This book, containing every wrestling event that took place in the Garden between Nov. 24, 1875, and Dec. 26, 2016, is the definitive, exhaustive record of professional wrestling in Madison Square Garden . The World�s Most Famous Arena! Wrestling in the Garden: The Battle for New York by Scott Teal. NOTICE! Many of the back issues are out of print, but we will be re-publishing most of them in new, updated, higher-quality formats. BOOK DETAILS. Paperback: 50 pages. Dimensions: 8.5 x 11. Publisher: Crowbar Press. The History of Professional Wrestling #1 Tampa, Florida 1943-1957. The first volume of this series covers the period between 1943 and 1957, the post-war years that saw the rise of pro wrestling in Tampa . a city that would become a hub of exciting wrestling action in the later, modern age of pro wrestling. Professional wrestling was a big draw in Tampa prior to World War II, but with the advent of the war, many of the wrestlers were drafted and shipped overseas, or assigned to duty on bases in the U.S. With a lack of talent available for wrestling promoters to draw from, wrestling hit a lull during the war years. In 1943, pro wrestling gradually made a comeback with several promoters trying to find their niche in the area. Most of us are familiar with the two most well-known promoters, 'Cowboy' Luttrall and Eddie Graham, but few people remember the pioneers like Price Daulton, Paul Butler, Chester Dix, Bill Sallade, and . Nick Gulas. These were the men in charge of the grunt-and-groan game in Tampa during the '40s. You'll read about a full-scale wrestling war between rival promotions in 1946 and 1947; the events that moved wrestling from the downtown Municipal Auditorium into Fort Homer Hesterly Armory; the appearance of the first version of the Florida Heavyweight Title; and the beginnings of the promotion headed by C.P. "Cowboy" Luttrall. The early '50s featured a transformation of wrestling into the style that would become popular in the '60s and '70s. This was an era that saw the promotion bring in all of the big stars . Buddy Rogers, Don Eagle, Gorgeous George, Mr. Moto, Lou Thesz, The Great Togo, Argentina Rocca, Baron Leone, Gino Garibaldi, Hans Schmidt . and unknown young men who were trying to make a name for themselves in the squared circle . like Eddie Gossett (Eddie Graham), Ray Stevens and Dick Steinborn. This was the era when Tampa mat fans witnessed the area's first live TV card featuring Harry Smith vs. Chris Zaharias, Mae Young vs. Phyllis Hoffman, and Ray Stevens vs. Bennie Trudell. Plus, it was a time when Ella Waldek, Dot Dotson, Betty Hawkins, and many other ladies were featured in the main event as the reigning Florida Women's champion.

  • Samoan Submission Machines
    Samoan Submission Machines: Grappling with Representations of Samoan Identity in Professional Wrestling Theo Plothe1 Savannah State University [email protected] Amongst the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. The discussion of Samoan identity in the context of sport has examined Maori identity and masculinity in New Zealand, among other topics, but there has yet to be work which considers Samoans within professional wrestling. This research investigates Samoan identity through a content analysis of televised wrestling matches. This research identifies six primary stereotypes under which Samoan identity is portrayed. These portrayals of Samoan characters, I argue, flatten the representation of this ethnic group within wrestling and culture at large. Keywords: Samoans, identity, representation, gimmicks Introduction Among the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. This research investigates the identity of Samoans within professional wrestling, and the different ways they are constructed and presented to audiences. “Gimmicks,” characters portrayed by a wrestler “resulting in the sum of fictional elements, attire and wrestling ability” (Oliva and Calleja 3) utilized by Samoans have run the gamut from the wild uncivilized savage, to the sumo (both in villainous Japanese and comically absurd iterations), to the ultra-cool mogul who wears silk shirts and fancy shoes. Their ability to cut promos, an important facet of the modern gimmick allowing wrestlers to address their opponents and storylines, varies widely as well, but all lie within their Samoan identity.

  • EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nampa PY2012-2016 Consolidated Plan
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nampa PY2012‐2016 Consolidated Plan This document is the Five‐year Consolidated Plan for the City of Nampa, covering program years 2012 through 2016. The Consolidated Plan is a requirement of cities that receive community development and housing block grant funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Consolidated Plans are required to be prepared every three to five years. HUD also requires annual spending plans and funding allocation reports (Annual Action Plan and Consolidated Annual Performance Report). The purpose of the Consolidated Plan is: 1. To identify a city’s or state’s housing and community development needs, priorities, goals and strategies; and 2. To stipulate how funds will be allocated to housing and community development activities. The City is a recipient of the Community Development Block Grant, or CDBG, funding. It should be noted that HUD is in the process of changing the submission requirements for the Consolidated Plan. This effort will make electronic submission more feasible and combine the Consolidated Plan with the data reported in the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). At the time this document was prepared, HUD has not released its new Consolidated Plan submission tool. As such, this Consolidated Plan was completed using the current, narrative format. The City of Nampa understands that its Action Plans for the PY2012‐2016 reporting period will be completed using the new format once it is released. In addition to the Consolidated Plan, HUD requires that cities and states receiving CDBG funding take actions to affirmatively further fair housing choice.

With this current article, researchers need only utilize these three bibliographies to identify all English- language items of relevance related to, or written by, Guthrie. Introduction Woodrow Wilson Guthrie (1912–67) was a singer, musician, composer, author, artist, radio personality, columnist, activist, and philosopher. By now, most anyone with interest knows the shorthand version of his biography: refugee from the Oklahoma dust bowl, California radio show performer, New York City socialist, musical documentarian of the Northwest, merchant marine, and finally decline and death from Huntington’s chorea.

Introduction The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) started in 1993 as a mixed martial arts (MMA) tournament on pay‐per‐view to determine the world’s greatest martial arts style. Its main draw was its lack of rules. Weight classes did not exist and rounds continued until one of the competitors got knocked out or submitted to his opponent. Although the UFC initially achieved underground success, it was regarded more as a spectacle than a sport and never attained mainstream popularity. The perceived brutality of the event led to political scrutiny and pressure. Attacks from critics caused the UFC to establish a set of unified rules with greater emphasis placed on the safety. The UFC also successfully petitioned to become sanctioned by the Nevada State Athletic Commission. However, these changes occurred too late to have an impact and by 2001, the parent organization of the UFC was on the verge of bankruptcy. The brand was sold to Zuffa LLC, marking the beginning of the UFC’s dramatic rise in popularity. Over the next eight years, the UFC evolved from its underground roots into the premier organization of a rapidly growing sport.

  • SALT LAKE CITY HISTORIC LANDSCAPES REPORT Executive Summary
    SALT LAKE CITY HISTORIC LANDSCAPES REPORT Executive Summary Warms Springs Park SLCHLR NO. 26 Warm Springs Park is located within the Capitol Hill National Historic District in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, Utah. It fronts on Beck Street (300 West) and Wall Street at 840 North Beck Street. The Warm Springs Park landscape is not considered historic in and of itself; however, it has historic significance because of the recognition of the area encompassing the historic warm springs; and its association with past building site(s) including the original 1922 Warm Springs Municipal Bathhouse located directly to the north. Warm Springs Park was established as a neighborhood park in 1925. The nine-acre park is bordered by Beck Street to the west, Wall Street to the southwest, Victory Road to the east, the historic warm springs site and North Gateway Park to the north, and an electrical substation to the south. The park site is relatively flat, nestled into the lower slopes of West Capitol Hill. Victory Road is several stories higher than the park site, tracing the terrain of the hill. A mix of commercial and light industrial uses are located on the opposite side of Beck Street, with a mix of single-family and higher-density residential uses dominating the Wall Street environment and neighborhoods to the south. There are numerous historic residences in the vicinity of the park particularly to the south. The park is accessed from Beck Street (300 West) and Wall Street. The park is divided into three character-defining sections: Northern Entrance & Tennis Courts, Open Park and Southern Entrance & Playground.
