      I'm guessing many here are clueless about him but might be more familiar with his off-spring.

        Lots of wrestling threads today. I love it!! I wasn't alive to see Grizzly wrestle, but I've always been a fan of Roberts. I saw him a couple years ago at an event in Duluth, MN. It was pretty cool even though he was well past his prime.

            He was definitely in the tank when I saw him too. He was at an autograph booth before his match started, which he then decided to use as a dressing room, and I turned around at the wrong time and saw Jake's "Snake". It was a little startling.
