    I met Terry for a second at Oktoberfest in Fredericksburg TX about 15 years ago, I had been drinking all day and I was a little bit too loud for his liking. He very calmly looked me up & down and then in his unique whisper voice said, "quiet down, son. Jesus Christ." Not only did I annoy Terry Funk but I also learned a tough lesson that day.

    Everyone should read his book "Terry Funk: More than Just Hardcore." It's like he's talking to you all about his life and the great stories that go with his long career. His instincts were always the best. You watch his matches and besides the great wrestling, he does things with his face and body language that just makes you believe he's going mental during a match. His style is so unique.

    my condolences to him and his family. he is definitely one of the true icons one of the best ever.

    In 1975 I seen my first riot and it was Terry's fault and also the coolest thing ever. I was 15 yrs old. It was at Eddie Graham Sport Stadium in Orlando, Fl. Dusty had 10 near falls when the referee turned his back and Terry hit Dusty with something he pulled from tights and pinned him. For about 3 second's you could hear a cricket fart. Then the place exploded. Chairs, fist's, beverages went flying. I had a cop shove me because he got hit with a cup of beer even though it came from behind me. My brother in law who took my friend and me to the matches was walking past the ring when it happened heard Teryy say, Dusty, get your ass up. They are going to kill me. Dusty fought Terry all the way back to dressing room. Here it is 43 years later and still one of my favorite memories. Terry in the ring or on the mic was gold.

    I grew up watching Amarillo Wrestling, they had it in back KFDA studio, Small ring, barely fit on bleachers and some time the fights would break out in the bleachers. I talk to the station manger Walt Harris of KFDA, and said they still had the old wrestling shows. I need to get in touch with Walt again and see if we can get them on UA-cam for all the great wrestling fans to see.

    I'll never forget his WCW run in 2000. Was just about the only thing worth watching on WCW at the time. He's 56, wrestling a hardcore match in a stable and gets kicked by a horse. Not only does he no-sell it, he pops back up on his feet and says "Fuck you, horse! I'll kick your ass!"
    And the horse backed down. Only the Funker.

    I grew up in NY. we got some wrestling starting in the mid 70's from down south, but we never got the bloody knock down drag out stuff that we had to read about in the wrestling magazines. Terry & Dory Funk were ALWAYS in those magazines. We did get to see alot of the bootlegs of those matches though. 6 months or a year later. The rivalries back then lasted for years so it was stil fresh, even a year later. Thanks for the memories Gordy bros.
