    As a Buffalonian and history teacher/armchair historian this was such a treat hearing Brian's program from Buffalo and Jim's comments. I was born in 1985 so it's before my time, but my grandfather would speak a lot about going to those cards. Hell, my high school US History teacher told me about going to the old Aud when they would throw golf balls at the Iron Sheik from the 300's. Such a magical time in wrestling. I'm glad to have at least experienced the Monday Night Wars in person, having sat front row as a 12-year-old for Nitro in wrestling's twilight.

      Language, use and diction evolves over time.. When he says "me and mother" he means he took his wife on a date and left the kids at home. Personally I found the term prune picker semi fascinating. It's a derogatory term for someone from California that time and history has forgot.
