I'd sure like to see another angle of that headlock in the first. From this angle it looked like you should have scored 2 near-fall. Seemed that the official was pretty slow to award control and a take down.
It was at Minniesota. When you are wrestling at home, you always get the benefit of the call. There were several times that I was wrestling at home in Madison and got some "good calls" in my favor as well. But MN was kinda notorious for having home refs. Still, I love this match. Even though I ended up losing, it was so fun to silence the crowd for a while!
Jim Hamel is my dad lulz. My name is Jake Hamel. My dad said that he has never seen this video though

cool! Jim was 4 or 5 years older than me so we never really knew each other well, and only wrestled twice.

I found out about this video from my dad, who found it out from someone at work and he showed this video to my brother and I.
