We used to go to the Township in Columbia, The Coliseum in Charlotte, Whatever it was called in Greenesboro, Myrtle Beach...... all over Sc and NC.... those were the days.
Funny side note, I met Gloria Roberts( think that was her name). she used to wrestle in GLOW back inthe day, and she had me all lined up to go to school to be a pro Wrestler...... but I let a freind talk me out of it...... lol..... wonder what woulda been....lol......
