RIP Randy Poffo / Randy Savage / The Macho Man
Died today in a car wreck after a heart attack. This wrestling family, the Poffos, lived/ lives here in town. Would see him from time to time mostly in the late '70's-'80's. Nice guy when I was around him.

1. That's too bad...
How old was he? Probably getting up there because it seems like he's been around forever.

2. 58 joey, damn I'm 57
I have put a bunch of drugs in my body but not steroids. Damn poison fucked up all sports and sports entertainment. I watched him as the boys were growing up and loved the WWF.

3. Yeah, that's not that old...
He always had that weather-beaten look that made him look older.

4. Lots of tanning booths will age you.
I used to like him and Miss Elizabeth (GRHS) and the old WWF. The WWE is just too much special effects and noise now.
