"Back home in Peterborough, Ontario, Porter Martone spends days every summer and hours every day in his family’s yard, shooting pucks at a net that has a homemade goalie set in front of it." Practice apparently makes perfect. #Flyers inquirer.com/flyers/flyers-…

@thinkingmnsport @andy_askowl They did! Even had an article explaining someone missing a Spectrum match because of "injury." The paper kept kayfabe alive

@matt_breen @andy_askowl Matt, they published results for a few of the Wrestlemanias as well (I recall seeing the results for Wrestlemania IV in the sports section).

They wanted to save “The Wall” when the Phillies moved to Citizens Bank Park but it didn’t happen. All these signatures were blown up with the Vet. “It went down with the ship.”
