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

00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:39.679

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

day Warrior is a thing there, good

96
00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:11.440
guy. Obviously Speed five experienced six
Strength two, Speed five, Cocaine seven

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
Class Championship Wrestling game. During the
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

133
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:09.879
least spoiled is not even it doesn't
