Matt Young 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2003 Nothing ever happens in Springfield. I've been to WWE house shows, a couple WCW TV tapings, and some concerts. I've gone to St. Louis for concerts and Cards games too, but nothing of significance. The ONLY cool "event" I have been at was the May 9th, 2000, WCW Thunder taping where Buff Bagwell got arrested. he was standing outside in his gear and myself and a friend asked for his autograph. He replied, "Ah, not right now, guys," and seconds later the cops came in, screaming at everyone to get back, and they cuffed "The Stuff". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2003 ECW's first fire table (Buh Buh & Balls) Not to nitpick, but I remember Public Enemy using flaming tables back in 95. I think they might have stacked two tables and lit the bottom one. I'm pretty sure that's how it went. I mean a full on fire table Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Papacita 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2003 ECW's first fire table (Buh Buh & Balls) Not to nitpick, but I remember Public Enemy using flaming tables back in 95. I think they might have stacked two tables and lit the bottom one. I'm pretty sure that's how it went. I mean a full on fire table I think (not sure) they used a full one when Rocco Rock fought 2 Cold Scorpio in a TV Title Vs Tag Title match (the one that set up the Sandman/Scorpio Vs Public Enemy match for N2R 95). If I remember right, Rocco set the table up and tried to give Scorpio the Drive-By through it, but Scorp moved, Rocco went through the table and apparently caught on fire. Scorpio then put the fire out, helped Rocco to his feet, then clotheslined him to take the belts for he and Sandman. Eh...it really doesn't matter though. I think the Dudleys' table spots were more spectacular anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
