8:56 Mean Gene's doubletake to Adonis' hat is great.

I forgot about Adrian Adonis showing up with hats like that, a different one every time. It was a precursor to his WWF character.

You are right, sir. I can remember a few others: Blackie Guzman, Nacho Barrera, Cesar Pabon, Pancho Zapata, Tom Stone, Scrapiron Gadaski, and of course, the "Sodbuster" Kenny Jay.

St. Boniface is a suburb of Winnipeg. Actually, Puppy Dog was from St. Vital, another Winnipeg suburb. I went to junior high with his son Jack! We used to bug Jack about his dad being a "loser" on TV. It was the mid-'70s. Everyone wanted to be The Fonz back then. I believe Mick Jagger and Keith Richards went to Ventura and Adonis' victory party.
