GaryD Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 It's that time again (almost). The Yankee Rebels' "Dixie Stinger" will be held on April 4th. The lineup is terrific, including the first alumni show appearance of "Swing House," a newly formed brass-percussion Jazz/Swing ensemble, under the musical direction of Larry Kerchner. Details below, and also at www.yankeerebels.org: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is Fran announcing for them, kangaroo boxing matches? Grizzly bear wrestling? LOL! Fact is, the WWF is actually the "World Wildlife Federation." They sued the other folks a few years back over copyright/trademark infringement or some such, and the 'other WWF' was forced to change its name to the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment). (Checkout the logo on their flag next time you drive past their headquarters on I-95 in Connecticut.) Sorry, I couldn't resist getting you on this one!

Actually, though, you bring up a solid clue to my television viewing habits - and it ain't wrestling. In the good old days - with Bruno Sammartino, Gorgeous George, etc., - it was all real; today it's nothing but show business. Riiiiiiight!!!! And yes.... If Fran could get a gig announcing Kangaroo Boxing Matches, while wearing a horrific shirt, he'd do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
