Ricky Steamboat video
Nov 12th, 2008, 11:25pm
 
For years now I've had some lyrics to a video that MACW did on Ricky Steamboat's retirement after Starrcade '83 in my head but I never could figure out the song until now. It was the Alan Parsons Project. The song was called Old and Wise.
 
Curious, does anybody have footage of the video on Steamboat with that song? It would've been late December or early to mid-January of 1984? Would love to see the video again.

I would love to see it myself. That angle was played out so well by Steamboat. I was working at a sporting goods store in the old Greenville mall and a lady who I saw every Monday night at the matches in Greenville Memorial Auditorium came in to the store and bought Ricky Steamboat a warm-up suit for his retirement gift. I remember her saying how much she was going to miss him. Little did we know it was a false alarm and his best days were ahead. But, at the time, it was shocking for all of us in the Mid Atlantic area. Those were the days!!!!

And before anyone asks, no, it wasn't me who bought the suit.  LOL

Noodle, Steamboat should have bought you an outfit.
