Best Guest(s) at this past Fanfest?

[stingmark]

In your opinion, who do you think was the best Guest(s) @ FF?

I will give you mine now:

Masked SS: I cannot tell you how glad I was to know and see how humble, genuinely nice, and kind he was with all of the fans there. I mean, he was nice to EVERYONE, no matter if they remembered him or not. IMO, that's a class act of a guy and someone who I'm glad to say I had the chance to meet, and I thank him for his kindness.


You all know who's next:

First off:

Sweet Stan Lane! He was so cool to the Stinger and even knew who i was. I had yet to meet one 1/2 of the greatest tag team in the history of pro wrestling, and he treated me as a friend and said "thanks for all you're support bud", which overwhelmed me. He too, was extremely kind to me and ALL of the fans who approached him, he's a nice man, and a class act. Stan, I wish you the best my friend.


Then, it was(who else? ;D): Cornette/Synn/Bobby/Dennis, a.ka. "my boys". They were the highlight of the event for me for sure. Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined sitting their shooting the poo poo w the greatest mgr, the greatest tag team, and the sweetest valet alive. ALL of them are 1st class all the way, and it's an honor to have them as friends.

Bennigans will live on forever with me, thanks again gang!!

Lanny Poffo: he was very cool to me in the lobby and remembered doing my show, and said he'd do it for me again anytime. Thanks Lanny, you're a class act.



Now, anyone else got any good stories?

Good idea, Stingmark.

I'm always interested in hearing stories from you guys about your interaction with our fanfest guests; especially the good stuff, but if there's any bad, I want to hear that too.

Thanks!

I,too,due to my good buddy stingmark had to say that hanging with the Mx/Corny and Synn was just fantastic! The talk I had with Bobby Eaton was just great! Although he wasn't too happy with me bringing up George Gulas and their "great" tag team!lol

And I have to say that one of the nicest and most humble guys I got to bs with,other than Mr. Eadie was Larry Sharpe! He and I chatted for about 15 minutes ,just bs'ing and he seemed genuinely happy and humble to be there! Guests like this will always keep me a fan of fanfest!!

You should be thankful. ;D..it's not often I allow a Bruno fan to interact with the greatest tag team to ever lace up a pair of boots. ;D

Oh and you were a helluva nice guy too. ;D

Boris Yates forget Big Bruno mfan dummy Brunogod, now he must bathe in tub of oil and eat schnitski for poopska later.

Truth be told, I think I was the best guest. But as far as WRESTLERS go, to me Bill Eadie was the MVP this year. Besides the fact that he is always first class with everyone, but his Q&A was one of the most insightful ones I've attended.

[dogthuhoops2k]

Bill Eadie is a fantastic human being period. Interesting to speak to about wrestling and about anything outside wrestling. Had a chance to spend some time with him in Rockville and could've talked with him all night. His interests are so varied. After a few minutes you forget all about he's the Masked Superstar/Demolition Ax/ Bolo Mongol because he is so engaging. The guy should have his own nationally syndicated radio show.

I thought Bockwinkel was a great guest! He still lives the part of the World Champ.

[GarvinStomp]

I would like to see Bockwinkel there again. I thought he carried himself with a lot of class.

[wildsiderules]

My favorite guest at this point would have to be Terry Funk at the 05 Charlotte FF. I said Terry, not Dory. Terry was so friendly and funny as hell. Would love to see him again in 07. As far as Dory is concerned, please stay at home.
