WRESTLING - LEXINGTON, N.C. - JUNE 14, 1963
Jul 31st, 2007, 11:08am
 
Professional wrestling, postponed last week, returns this Saturday night to the Lexington YMCA with another all-star card featuring a battle of huge wrestlers.
 
The Mighty Kentuckians, TINY ANDERSON and BIG BOY BROWN, with a combined weight of 706 pounds, meet a new and huge team of GEORGE (Crybaby) CANNON and GEORGE (Two Ton) HARRIS, who weigh in at 626 pounds. The match is a one-hour, two of three falls encounter.
 
HARRIS is returning to the area after serving out a six month expulsion over a loss of a match to JOHNNY WEAVER. The loser of that match had to leave the state for six months.
 
JESSE JAMES and PAT O'HARA meet in the semi-final, and the opener matches FRANK MARCONIX, a newcomer, against KEN YATES.
 
Action begins at 8:15 p.m.

These flashbacks are so great.  This was almost 20 years before I was born, but I always enjoy reading about what was going on back then, especially in the Carolina's, as it always seemed to be a real hotbed.

Look big daddy, it's regular daddy.

El Mariachi: You want me to shoot the cook?
Agent Sands: No. I'll shoot the cook. My car's parked out back anyway.
