sorry guys.
 
here are some thoughts from the day one and day two.  
 
Eadie's Q and A was great,  Enjoyed his stories and he kept it going.  
 
The Mansfield and Schultz Q and A I didn't like as much because of Mansfield.  I understand you were blackballed in the industry.  OK you don't need to repeat yourself 5 times to say it.  You don't like Ole. OK you don't have to say that god has a way of getting even.  We are all imperfect and I hate to say he is right but he is.  I hope and pray that one day that mr mansfield never has to live his life from a wheelchair with MS.  
As much as I disliked Mansfield  I liked Schultz.  He gave his opinon and took no prisoners.  He seemed like a no nonsense kind of guy (imagine that). Had a Photo op with Schultz and he was really nice then. Mansfield did redeem himself to me in the autograph stage a little by talking about some of the legends that had signed my encylopedia the way he did.  All in all we all have good and bad.
 
I looked forward to the Hansen Q and A the most.  Hansen answered the most questions, but didn't really get to deep into it just saying that the guys we asked about were nice guys and great workers.  He didn't want to talk about brody's death which is completly understandable.  I asked him about Dr Death and he said in on of the times when he gave us a little more that he had some Voice mails from Steve that he refused to get rid of on his phone, just to keep a little bit of him around.  
 
Day 2 was busy for Devona and I.  I started off with a Ron Simmons photo op.  Mr Simmons was a gentlema nand very nice to Devona and myself when he met him later as well.  Devona and I have decided that Ron has a very distinctive voice and that he is a great guy.  Ron even got a laugh out of me calling my best friend and rolling him out of bed to let him know that Ron had just won the WCW World title.  Next was The Iron Sheik photo op, which was really cool. Follow Sheik on twitter and he was nothing but polite and he asked me where I wanted him to sign the encylopedia and the belt.  I told him he could sign whereever he liked, he was the Iron Sheik. He smiled at that and signed the encyopedia WWE Hall of famer. The next autograph we got was Perry Saturn, who has added some facial tattoos since I saw him last.  He was nice to Devona and I and very accomdating.  Maria was very nice and very pretty. Television does not do her justice, she is prettier she looked on TV.  While I did my Dr. D photo op Devona got the Encylopedia signed by Jimmy Hart and Jim Neidhart,  Jimmy was very accomdating and a good guy.  Neidhart was not what I was expecting.  I was expecting the Anvil and got Nattie's dad.  He was very nice and shook hands with everyone that came by. Luke Williams signed the book next.  Much calmer than I expected,  Was great to hear that accent and see him and he was great as everyone else we met was, just a great person.  We went outside and got the photo of a lifetime with Harley Race and the Iron Sheik.  It was really cool to sit there and watch them talk.  next was Luke Gallows, Paul Bearer, Terry Taylor and Larry Zybsko.  Told Luke I hated the Festus gimmick but liked Gallows and was really getting into what he was doing and he was future endeevored.  Paul was a great guy and just talked to everyoe who came by,  Terry was a great guy and even gave Devona a hug after he signed the encylopedia.  Zybsko was gracious and signed the book.  We ate really quick and ran into another twitter friend and board alumnus Jeff P.  Devona was afraid of missing Matt Morgan and told me that if I didn't get it in gear and she missed the blueprint I wasn't going to live to eat dinner with Hansen.  She got to meet Matt, more than once and I will say nothing but good things about him.  After meeting and talking to him for a while he will be yet another reason why I will watch TNA because he is a great guy and not at all stuck up.  Right before hall of heroes we ran into him and he made Desmmothly. great by saying she looked pretty (she looked great.  Lucky she was my date).  Next was Devona in the pit with Piper.  She said that she got nervous  right before she sat down with him but he was a great guy.  He hugged her and told her she was preciouand perfect. Piper was big for Devona and this meant a lot to her.  If you went last year the autograph stage was rough but Greg has turned that around 180 degrees,  Both autograph stages were ran well and went smoothly.  Devona ran into Snuka outside and he said he was very proud of Tamina and he was looking forward to seeing her do more on TV.  Next was the Dog Collar photo op which was really neat. I got to hold the belt that they fought over and Piper and Valentine had the dog collar on.  I had two more Photo ops after that. Hennan and Bockwinkel, Hansen, Bockwinkell and Zybsko with the AWA Wirld Title that Bockwinkell and Hansen held.  We went upstairs and took a nap before hall of heroes.  We sat with Hansen and for me it was great.  Hall of Heroes was awesome.  I was impressed by how well DDP spoke and he told some great stories about Humperdink.  Hearing Tony Atlas give the amens while T Bolt was inducting Ted Turner was great.  Piper did not disappoint when he inducted Gordon.  I know I am missing a lot but that is a thumbnail of what happened for the past few days through my eyes and keyboard.  I will try to post after rowdy friends tonight but I somehow think that wont happen.  
 
Wish everyone was here.  
 
James and Devona

James,
 
Thanks for this. My wife of almost 27 years has had to put up with me moping around this week about not being able to go to the Atlanta Fanfest. The You Tube videos and your update has made me feel better. That is good for her and me.  How was the Forum mixer? Did you get a chance to meet any of the other guys from NWAClassics.

Mansfield turned his and Schultz q & a into his personal bitching party. He hogged the mike whining about all the dreadful things that happened to him in his career. Schultz hardly got a chance to talk.I think Schultz was perfectly happy to sit there and say little and get his picture taken. I pretty much told Mansfield to zip it during the autograph session he was in. As he signed the item I gave him all I said was I respected his right to state his grievances.....and then he started his I'm a big victim rant.I interjected that according to him he now owns a multi million dollar production co..won some emmys and was nominated for a Peabody......and to get over it and welcome to today.!.....The stunned look on his face was priceless but it shut him up......Schultz just looked down and kinda giggled to himself

I just want to chime in and say thank you to all the forum members that I've met this weekend. I don't want to name individual names, because I'm writing this at 2:30am after many, many beers and I'd hate to forget somebody and hurt any feelings. But we all know that we've crossed paths this weekend, shared excitement over who we just met, showed each other our photo ops, or just bumped into each other and said a friendly hello. And its all been awesome.
 
Next to meeting the legends, my favorite part of this weekend has been meeting and hanging with you guys, and I wont ever forget it. The Fanfest crowd, especially the forum members, are some of the nicest, kindest, most humble and sincere people I know. So thank you guys for adding to a very special weekend.
 
Sadly, we're now just hours away from the worst part of Fanfest...the end! undecided
 
PS if Nate wins the belt tomorrow afternoon, I predict World War III will break out in the Marriott!

I can't say enough good and positive things about most everybody, especially about Piper, Shultz, Sheik, Heenan, ect except Eddie Mansfield! What an a$$-clown! But hey, only 1 bad apple among a boatload of incredible legends! It was incredible  Smiley

i agree that Masfiled defined a jeff jarett term used in the dying days of WCW which would be slap-****.  I would have loved to see DDP slap a damond cutter on that blowhard.  
 
Other than that and the Party Bus Girl it was beyond fun and the Party Bus Girl was good for a laugh if nothing else. As Bill said she can't talk if shes drinking.

Does anyone have any pictures with Heenan ?    I've been looking around and enjoying all the pics but have yet to see one with either Heenan or Rob Van Dam.
 
Also, hey PantherFan, where's the You Tube Update" another poster mentioned ?
 
I was stranded here, man.   Couldn't make it.    Sounds like I missed a classic.

Haven't had a chance to scan my photo ops yet Mark, but my Bobby photo op is probably my all time favorite of all the ones I've got over the years. But here's a couple of snaps of The Brain from my cell phone. Bobby was super friendly and really happy the whole time. Wrestler and wrestler came over to the table to show respect to him.
 
His wife was next to him the whole time to help with translation, etc.  
 
I told him about how my Grandfather never used to care much for wrestling, but he'd always sit and listen to Bobby and Gorilla as though they were on the radio and he'd sit in his chair cracking himself up at their shenanigans. Bobby got a kick out of that.

all that mrs pantherfan did was snap pics.  She will try to get some up tonight if she can do that after getting through unpacking and going through her new Coach bags.  I bought two new DVD's with Corny in them and 4 books so she will be a wrestling widow for a few weeks.  I tried to post day three and four last night from the lap top but kept nodding off.  Getting to old for fanfest I guess.  It was great seeing Nate, Daniel, Carl, Dj taylor, Eddie and his wife and son, my canuck friend and twitter buddy Jeff P, Tracey and I know I am forgetting someone, once again old age.  If 16 times would have been there it would have been the icing on the cake.  Him on the party bus with the dumb blond would have been awesone, I'm sure he would have said what i whispering to Devona.  I normally don't drink but she almost drove me too it.  Devona drunk half a beer and she hates beer. If you looked up anyoing in the dictonary you would see her.  
 
I had a great time and I hate being at home except for all of my stuff being here including my wife, son and dog. Most disappointing of all is I wont come around a corner in my home and see a guy in a mask, or Tony Atlas.  I saw them all fanfest.

When someone has the time, I'd love to hear more about the "Blonde on the Bus". So far I've heard bits and pieces from a few people who wanted to throw her out of the emergency exit, but I don't know exactly why! Someone please share.

Thanks. This was the first time I used it, so I was learning as I went along  Cheesy. I tried to get some casual shots of the legends talking and what not, thought it would look cool. Thanks for noticing.

Me too.  Oops I was there. But would still like to hear the whole thing.  Boy I was holding Devona back. I thought the wrestling MIGHT not be over when she started up.

Me too.  Oops I was there. But would still like to hear the whole thing.  Boy I was holding Devona back. I thought the wrestling MIGHT not be over when she started up.

Yeah, I was there and want the full recap as well since I am probably missing some details

Was she banging guys in the back of the bus or what?...it can't be that bad. Just post the story here. If someone doesn't want to read it they can skip over it.

well from what I have been told and putting all of the stories I had heard together she was an invited guest of RVD, or that is what she said.  She bragged about that the whole way to the matches and my poor buddy Brnadon had to sit next to her because Devona and I wanted to talk to him. We had a great time with him and Wolf at the varsity before all of the Q and A's . IMHO she had one of those voices that just grind on you after a while.  Boy did I feel bad for Brandon and the more beer she drank the more her lips loosened up.  you would have thought when she pooped it came out in little plastic baggies and smelled like potpouri.  we went to the matches and she was on the front row and after the Gunner/Pearce match she slapped Adam as he was going up the aisle and she said the chased him up the aisle.  I personally was having to much fun watchi.ng Gunner turn the ref into a pancake so going on her word.  Then she got back on the bus and sat next to us and got mad when poor Brandon wanted to sit elsewhere saying she wanted he boyfriend back.  Poor Brandon.  He was doing 12 oz medications the whole way back two at a time.  What got my goat was she said that she got a wrestlers phone number and she was going to call them later, not naming names.  She went on and on and on about this and one of the folks on the bus saw the number and took it down.   She complained about this person interfering in her life. On and on.  I was chanelling Chris Jericho and wanted to stand up and scream would you please shut the **** up.  Devona held me back.  Carl was telling a story about some WCW folks he knew and when he worked on the WCW ring crew and it involed Missy Hyatt.  I wont go into the story but it wasn't pretty.  She went off on Carl about this even though she was cussing like a sailor.  I didn't hear what Carl said but he did apologize to her and she wouldn't let it go.  As Bill said when she handed he a beer she can't talk and drink at the same time.  
 
thats all i know i'm sure other folks will add more.

Here is my take on the whole Blonde on the bus.
 
As is the case when you put a bunch of people on a bus, there will always be strangers who get to sit together.  The blonde ended up a few rows in front of me and right behind James and Devonna.  As you might imagine, she had several beers on the way over and was probably more then a little buzzed.
 
When we got to the matches, the guy who she made miserable on the way over was sitting just to the other side of me and John from Columbia, TN. The blonde sat beside him though it was apparent that they didn't know each other prior.  Again one of those things that happens.
 
During the last match Gunner vs Pearce, she was giving Pearce all kinds of hell and had moved to front where she stood and continued yelling at Pearce.  At one point she told Pearce that he sucked and he responded yeah but you swallow.
 
After the match, Pearce is headed to the dressing room.  She got in his face and more yelling ensued.  She at one point patted his face with her hand.  Totally uncalled for and he definitely showed some composure and restraint.  He probably could tell she was drunk.
 
Back to the bus for the return trip.  Everyone got back to the bus pretty quickly as the excitement for Piper's show was building.  She was the last person on the bus by several minutes which wasn't enduring her any further to everyone else.  The guy that she sat with on the way down had found someone else to sit where she had been sitting and when she got on the bus, she made a huge drama filled and profanity laced production over it.  The guy moved and she sat down and that's when the drama continued to escalate.
 
The guys sitting directly behind her gave her grief about her confrontation with Pearce.  At one point, she claimed that a wrestler (I thought it was Gunner, I could be wrong) had given her his cell number and wanted her to call him when she got back to the room.  Someone asked her if it was his number why didn't she just call him then and there and prove it.  During this exchange, one of the guys was able to see the number and even read it back to her.
 
At this point she became belligerent.  Drama and much profanity ensued with her screaming something to the effect of "you better f'n delete that number" and "I want to watch you delete the number."  By now, everyone was pretty sick and tired of her.  She continued to yell at the guy over and over and several people began mimicking Steve Austin's little "What?!" after everything she said.  At one point, there was even a small chant of "shut the f up" clap clap clap clap clap and I thought I heard a similar chant of "you're a dumb bitch."  Finally a chant of "we want more beer" broke out.
 
She either settled down or I was just ignoring her.  Though from time to time, you could hear her still being pissy at the guy.  Several of us began talking about wrestling in particular the territories, WWE, TNA, stories we had heard about people, etc.  Someone brought up Missy Hyatt.  I was sharing several stories of when I lived in Atlanta in the early 90's about Missy.  A few of them tame, a few PG-13, a couple R rated.  The last few were off color and were more NC-17 in nature.  The last story was graphic but in trying to be sensitive to some who might be easily offended, I demonstrated with hand gestures in a way that only 2 other people could see.  I ended it with a comment to the effect of if you were gonna screw her back then you'd need to tie a board to your butt.  About 30-45 seconds passed and the blonde stood up and started in on me.  She said she was offended though she never specifically said what had offended her, but I apologized.  She kept berating me and I responded that I had apologized and dropped the subject.  She continued to berate me.  I said what else do you want me to say or do?  I have apologized now for a third time and as far as I was concerned that the matter was over.  This apparently didn't cut it with her because she was "calling me out" for what I had said.   Thankfully, we were pulling into the Marriot so we were finally done with her theatrics.  Of course several people wanted to know what I had done or said to set her off, but were glad that she wasn't yelling at them anymore.    
 
Any way, that's what I know of the blonde on the bus.

Here are my photo op scans
 

During this shot, Piper said to me and my brother "ya know, I would love to take you guys out tonight....but it would probably end up with the three of us getting arrested!"
 

Hot Rod said he'd give me a special pose for this picture by grabbing me by the head and pressing the chain right against my face. I was more than happy with how this photo came out but on Saturday morning Greg came up to me and said that since the photo was blurry I could get it retaken for free.  
 

This photo came out even better imo and how could I pass up an additional chance to see Piper?
 
 

The RVD photos were done incredibly fast and not much time for talking, but he did seem really cool and nice to everyone. I think the photo came off pretty well.
 

 

The King was another legend I've been wanting to meet for a long time, and he did not disapoint. He got a kick out of the fact that one of my earliest wrestling memories when I was a kid was when he jumped Bret Hart at KOTR 93
 

Socal is a total sweet hart. I spoke to her for a while after the picture was taken and then later on the elevator  
 

probably my favorite picture from the weekend. When I got it signed the next day he even showed Jimmy Hart the photo.
 

Shieky Baby was a class act, nothing like how the internet had portrayed him
 

This picture does not due Maria's beauty justice, she looked practically Photoshopped.  
 

It was great meeting the Brain again. He has not lost a step

Charlie,  
 
had more fun sitting next you at the matches then I've had in a long time.  Seemed like we were on the same wavelength.  Awesome time seeing Davey and Colt up that close was great.  
 
Hope next year we can do it again.
