29
00:02:54,719 --> 00:02:59,360
You go around the perimeter with colored
boxes and then you snake your way to

30
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,120
the center where there's a beautiful portrait
of Gordon Soli himself, the dean of

31
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:07,400
wrestling announcers. I mean, who
the fuck came up with this product?

32
00:03:07,439 --> 00:03:14,039
Who the fuck? And you're gonna
buy a wrestling board game and you're gonna

33
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:20,439
buy it with an announcer on it
instead of a wrestler. This is the

34
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,039
apparently, this is this is gonna
be the sid card matchmaker's decision. But

35
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:27,599
this is definitely the said card you
failed to appear for your last match.

36
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:34,159
Move back two spaces. Yeah,
somebody got revenge consulting on that. I'm

37
00:03:34,159 --> 00:03:37,680
gonna pick. I'm gonna pick a
random card and I'm gonna trivia your ass

38
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,000
here. So that's this game is
is wrestling trivia. Oh, that's about

39
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:46,879
the rules. It's like trivial pursuit. I love this so much. Okay,

40
00:03:47,479 --> 00:03:52,360
I guess h you're gonna be history. Okay. G I don't know

41
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:57,240
what g is though. It's g
it doesn't matter, gigging, gigging.

42
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:01,599
Maybe maybe like some kind of Oh, gimmick. She's got a gimmick,

43
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,240
it says, gimmick on the board
game. Well it's got to be that's

44
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,960
what She's got to be. Gimmick, because what nickname. Do Gary Hart

45
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,000
and Buddy Rose share layboy? Right, it's gonna be the gimmick. I

46
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,920
love this. So this is actual
straight up wrestling tribua. Gentleman Phil Letto

47
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:20,560
was the president of the nw A
for this is true or false? Gentlemen

48
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:26,600
film Gentleman Phil Letto or Lito I
don't know was the president of the NWA

49
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,920
from nineteen fifty three until his fourth
retirement nineteen fifty six or false. False,

50
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,519
You're right, no such person.
Let's keep going until I get what

51
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,399
wrong. No, I'm kidding,
I'll be forever. I need to pick

52
00:04:38,439 --> 00:04:41,120
out one more so not gotta make
sense why it would be built around an

53
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,120
announcer, because he's like a historian. Right, it's presenting a game,

54
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,680
a game for the wrestling nomatic in
your life. Who was the first black

55
00:04:47,720 --> 00:05:11,879
masked woman wrestler? My god,
what I'm trying to do is not recall

56
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,959
a black masked wrestler, female wrestler, but recall just any black female wrestler

57
00:05:18,959 --> 00:05:23,240
from like the fifties. And I
have like two people in my head that

58
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,519
I can see from documentaries and stuff
that I can't remember their names off the

59
00:05:27,519 --> 00:05:30,120
top of my head. What is
it the black orchid? Oh fuck,

60
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,480
that's a little on the nose.
That's this is They should have called her

61
00:05:35,519 --> 00:05:42,519
the white guy. That'd have been
something. Well shit that I mean,

62
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,639
you're not gonna these deep cuts man. As we go through wrestling history on

63
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:51,600
TLF and we find these little off
to the side licensing curiosities, and we

64
00:05:53,079 --> 00:05:55,519
never imagine we can hold them in
our hands. The solar system on a

91
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:46,320
David, you know he was in
He was in seventy five years worth

92
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,600
of board games in this time.
A very good point. I can't deny

93
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,919
that. I can't believe you're putting
at this Iron Class season. You're putting

94
00:08:54,919 --> 00:09:00,320
your hands on the von Eric family
board game. Oh God, Like what

95
00:09:00,399 --> 00:09:05,720

Claw attempt. Oh, I see these

98
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,519
are the card numbers, is what
it is. So it's a game where

99
00:09:22,519 --> 00:09:26,440
you like interest fight. Yeah.
Interests are water skiing, scuba diving,

100
00:09:26,519 --> 00:09:30,639
hunting, fishing, and doing drugs. Yeah, that was funny they put

101
00:09:30,639 --> 00:09:37,679
that on there. Former NWA Worldyweight
Champion and World Champion six man tag team.

102
00:09:37,919 --> 00:09:43,159
Nice grammar there, I mean,
And it's a fucking it's a cribbage

103
00:09:43,159 --> 00:09:48,279
board, right you're holding it up. It's instead of a board like a

104
00:09:48,279 --> 00:09:52,159
board game, like a monopoly,
it's a cribbage board. So weird,

105
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,720
Wow, what a fucking Jesus.
I don't even know, like, you

106
00:09:56,759 --> 00:10:00,960
know, the WWF licensing explosion in
an eighty five, and then pretty soon

107
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,879
all these other companies looking to make
a buck off. Wrestlinger going to the

108
00:10:03,879 --> 00:10:07,639
second and thirtier is Remcota Verne for
the ANBA figures, and this game company

109
00:10:07,639 --> 00:10:13,960
to Fritz for a board game.
Remember from the Minimal Tragedy, Kevin ron

110
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,159
Eric talking about people coming to the
house about a Light Action figure online and

111
00:10:16,159 --> 00:10:18,519
Fritz telling him to go fuck themselves, thinking it was a scam. Look

112
00:10:18,519 --> 00:10:22,440
at the family portrait, the full
suit and the boys were there. David's

113
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,799
there, just read quickly that little
bit, that little blurb, Oh yeah,

114
00:10:26,919 --> 00:10:30,960
next to their bodies there, all
right, Well they get it to

115
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,919
the whole Oh yeah, I'll get
to the whole thing. That's part of

116
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,279
The lights are hot and the crowd's
roar is deafening. As you struggle for

117
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,200
victory in the ring, you sense
your opponent's weakness. A quick chop,

118
00:10:43,399 --> 00:10:48,039
a punishing headbutt, in a devastating
atomic drop take him down for the pin.

119
00:10:48,519 --> 00:10:52,600
You are a world class wrestler.
In the official von Eric Family World

120
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:58,039

nineteen fifties, Fritz von Eric and his

121
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:05,279
brother Waldo, Oh fucking hell,
keep going provide professional wrestling with one of

122
00:11:05,279 --> 00:11:09,480
its most awesome tag teams. As
Fritz's career flourished, fierce grudge matches developed

123
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:16,000
with such grades as Gene Kiniski,
whose son Kelly currently battles the von Eric

124
00:11:16,039 --> 00:11:20,080
Boys. The von Erics, firmly
established in wrestling history, continue their family

125
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,759
tradition into the second generation. David, the oldest son, became a living

126
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:31,159
legend before an untimely death and is
career. What a strange name to give

127
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:35,679
him? No, Kevin, Carry
and Mike continue to roll up brother impressive

128
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:41,399
records as they become the superstars of
professional wrestling. Chris the youngest son not

129
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:48,440
pictured. Where's Jackie may someday enter
the ring to claim his place in wrestling

130
00:11:48,519 --> 00:11:54,120
history. Oh he would, all
right? I mean that's Christmas twenty twenty

00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:05,360
uh of Christmas goodwill from the top. We're spoiled, to say, the

133
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,879
least spoiled is not even it doesn't
even begin. We'll see you next time

134
00:12:09,919 --> 00:12:16,840
