    OMG was at a buffet in Florida when he got kicked out because he ate all the smoked salmon and asked for more. He told them that he felt he did not get his money's worth. It was hilarious, but you had to be there to appreciate it.

      What was the name of the tv show he starred in?
      I was a strange child, often by choice, like when choosing to be a huge fan of the one-man gang. He was my second favorite wrestler, maybe even my first because it was 2 different types of enjoyment from hulk hogan and the one man gang.
      When I heard his TV show was coming out I was so excited with anticipation... and then I watched the TV show. Still enjoyed it just for the fact that my favorite wrestler was on the TV. He was always fun to watch and looked like a good guy inside even to a brainwashed Mark like myself at that age. You know, just being a kid.
      Although as an adult I'm still proud to have been a hulkamaniac.
      Lives forever brother!

    The first time that I saw the One Man Gang was when General Skandar Akbar took the Samoans from the Big Cat Ernie Ladd. Ladd went into the ring and was clobbering the three of them when the One Man Gang appeared and turned the tide. He did a splash onto Ernie's knees, putting him out of action. The Gang was huge!

    I worked in Maximum Security at a prison here in Tennessee: Morgan County Correctional Complex, the successor of Brushy Mountain Prison. I worked there for over 10 years. We didn't have a Death Row there, just a bunch of notorious inmates. Riverbend houses our state's Death Row, over near Memphis. But yeah, most of what Dutch said Gang said about the atmosphere in places like that is all pretty accurate. I was over 120 inmates in 4 pods of about 36 men to a pod, with me responsible for the A & B pods at like Countime & during security rounds. And consistently was key w/ my guys. You had to come in every day & try & treat them the same way you did the day before & not like, one day be nice & pass the phone around & then the following day come in & not run a phone the entire shift. If you were the same guy every day, & treated them like men & not like animals (which I alway did & never had one single issue w/ any of my guys) then they grew to see you were a good person & then they would behave & mind me & never gave me one issue. All they want tho in a 23 hr a day lockdown is that firm fair treatment & that consistency & if you give thar back to them, I found that like Gang said, they would generally never be an issue. Just keep it quiet & not be a big dick to them. All they want..

    I roamed the roads of the Dirty South for 18 years as an indy wrestler. The part where Dutch talked about going into a town where you don't know a soul and being respectful because you don't know who the crazy bastards are - SOOO true. HEAVY truth. And it's not just that - not only do you not know who is unhinged, you also don't know whose daddy owns half the county and can give you a bad time that way. I was on a show with OMG once, at Championship Park in Glencoe, AL. He seemed like he just wanted to do his bit and get the hell out of there. We all have evenings like that.

    At the 8:44 mark. Dutch, some of us are for the Right to CHOOSE abortion AND for Capital Punishment to be an option for those whose crimes have no doubt that it was committed and the crimes rise to the level (murdering others) that a life should be taken. Love OMG (Crusher Broomfield) by the way as a seemingly consummate pro wrestler and even better person as George Gray. I grew up in Memphis and saw him as Crusher Broomfield when ICW was on one of the UHF (look it up) channels in Memphis. Either channel 24 or channel 30.

      That's not true. Death Row inmates are at a facility so long they know the routine and the politics. They have a daily set routine that they are used to and depend on. They commit a crime they get sent to another facility where they have no privledges, no connections, no protection on and on. Like going to San Quentin to Pelican Bay, where they are on 23hr lockdown and when they get to go outside for one hour, they're literally locked in a cage. No worse punishment to a prisoner than take their routine away from them.
