cawthon777 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 I just got back in town from Spring Break yesterday and thought I would pass along a few of these shots taken last weekend while in NYC. I have more coming soon (and video from Mania and Raw) but here's a quick sampling. By the way, I had the pyro directly behind me. When Eddie came out and slapped hands, that's where I was - only those people stole my rightful standing position behind my chair. Toys R Us window Toys R Us inside WrestleMania trash can Madison Square Garden Inside MSG The Rock & Ric Flair HoF Inductees Taker's mist Taker's Entrance Benoit's Entrance Confetti Benoit with the Belt The security at the Garden was awful. I would say 1 out of every 20 people (without bags) was checked with the hand wand. I saw more than a few people with actual camcorders taping the show.

Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 I think they learned a lesson from Feburary's PPV, where security insisted on taking so much umbrellas, food, etc, that the building was seen as mostly empty when they went on the air. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted March 21, 2004 Could you see the ring from where you were standing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cawthon777 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 I could see whoever was in the ring but usually not the ring itself. What made things more difficult were the rows of people in front of me who felt the need to stand or throw their signs in the air (even though the camera was aimed in the opposite direction ... they never caught on to that).

cawthon777 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 DAMMIT- I knew I should have went INSIDE the Toys R Us It was pretty cool. They had Angle's singlet from when he beat Big Show for the title (as seen in the picture), Andre's hand print, Show's hand print, and a lot of (apparently) exclusive action figures. I thought about picking up one of the Classic or Times Square exclusive figs but the most abundant one was Triple H and I wasn't THAT desperate. No Bret, no Shawn, no Warrior, no Taker but PLENTY of Triple H. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only The Strong Survive 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 It sucks that the people in front of you have to be such jerks about their seats. Then again, considerate people are very very very hard to find... Plus you're in NYC, so I guess you can forget about that... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
