Notes:  It was a packed house in East Carondelet, which was cited as a reason for the move to the larger Belle-Clair Fairgrounds building.  It sounded like MMWA was close to sold out as well, so despite the issues with running against each other, neither group seems to have problems with drawing fans.  Official Ben Simon Concession Count(tm):  Mountain Dew, cheeseburger, bottle of water, Pepsi, bag of Fritos.  (I slept most of Saturday so hadn't eaten much beforehand.)  Drew acknowledged the recent passing of Cody Vogt, who helped with the technical side of Party Animal Radio back in the day (featuring a wrestling program with Drew, Ben Simon, and Mike Gordon); unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity to meet Cody in those days.  Picked up an autographed 8x10 of Kevin Sullivan and Purple Haze and also had the opportunity to meet Austin Mulitalo for the first time; had seen him on the All Star Wrestling program but this was my first chance to see him live.
