30,000?That's a worked number if I ever heard one.19,000 is a more reliable,and reasonable estimate.This show was Gagne's last gasp as a major promotion,even in his home base.Within a year both Crockett and McMahon would be kicking his ass in all his major towns
Tiger Mask deserved to have a better opponent than Zumhofe, come on, Tiger was a legend !! Bad booking by Verne.
Windham and Rotundo without their All American gimmick wasn't the same. Still, it was kind of a dream match to see them face the Fabulous ones. Months later Barry would be back in the NWA, challenging Ric Flair all over the Country for the World Title, and months later Stan Lane will also join the NWA to form perhaps the best tag team ever, The Midnight Express with Bobby Eaton. :)
Big deal having 30,000 people show up. He did it with talent that was not his. Over half of the talent did not wrestle in the AWA the following Monday.
