This week I won tickets to WRESTLECade!!!
I really had no clue what that was but I knew Connor would be so excited. The event was that more exciting when he learned we could take his tag team partner B.!
Friday Night, I picked up the boys and we hit the road for WrestleCade 2015!!
Luckily, I was able to give away our extra tickets to people who were in line to pay.
One dad was there with his three daughters and they were so excited to get to attend the Saturday 'Meet and Greet'.
I love to give things away.
On our way, the boys wanted Wafflehouse.
The waiter at the Wafflehouse asked me if these were my twin boys?
ummmm.
I don't see it.
Opinions on the actual event?
Let me count the reasons I am SO glad these tickets came to us free of charge.
1. The hecklers who taught us to count:
'What comes after 1...'2', What comes after 2...'3', What comes after 3...'4', what comes after 4....wrestler shoots the middle finger at hecklers. Hit repeat.
2. The hecklers who shouted at the BIG wrestler, "Krispy Kremmmmmme. Kris-py... Kremmmmmmme!!!"
Wrestler: Is that the best you got pal!?!
Hecklers: "Dunk-in' Dough-nuts, Dunk-in' Dough-nuts!!!"
This is Not Mr. Krispy Kreme. This is Mr. Protein Shake. |
Of course, we went to Krispy Kreme after the match. The Hecklers gave me a craving.
4. Wrestling Egos
Booker T in the background |
When my boys saw Booker T. they were so excited. They ran right up to him to say hello. There were NO other children around. He ignored the boys completely and rode off on a scooter.
The second time that night the boys stood in front of him for 10 minutes and he never acknowledged him. I almost took him in the ring. Jerk Face. I will never be a fan.
For the Saturday 'Meet and Greet', Darren took the boys (which is why there are no pictures) and they were able to meet and get autographs from Jeff Hardy, Animal from the Road Warriors, Ricky the Dragon Steamboat, DDP, and Bob Caudle.
Matt Hardy and Booker T. charged $35 for autographs. Connor explained "it ain't their fault mom, it is their manager's fault"
5. DDP Impersonator
I was so excited to see Diamond Dallas Page who was slated to be at the match! We left our seats and ran right over to meet him. The fact NO ONE was around him should have been an indicator.
As soon as we got to him to get pictures, I realized... he was some random stranger selling t. shirts.
It was embarrassing but not as embarrassing as these wrestling snowflake tights:
6. The Hard High Five
7. Reminder to C.: Screaming "YOU SUCK" is not appropriate (even if its true).
8. Surround Sound
You haven't lived until you get seated beside the loud speaker and watch all the glamour at the entrance.
9. My Son Blew His $$$ on This:
Not even a VT fan |
I blew my $$$ on This:
Give em' Flying Elbow Drop!!! |
10. I could have stayed in my pajamas to watch REAL wrestling.
I don't know how we didn't get kicked out.

ReplyDeleteha. ha. They are TRUE fans. Thanks so much. We parents will do things we never thought once the kids come, but I like to think it broadens us as humans. :)
