I am saddened to find out today that it's closing it's doors (I just watched the Vince McMahon announcement on Raw)
My first WWE show, we went for my older brother's 7th birthday(I was 4 years old). All I can remember from the show was that my father took me ringside on his shoulders to see Kamala up close, and when he looked at me and slapped his belly, I tried going in reverse and strangled my father lol. I also remember one of the Bushwhackers biting Shawn Michaels' backside. I can remember Macho Man's entrance too.
WWF @ Long Island, NY - Nassau Coliseum - August 1, 1992 (6,000)
Bushwhacker Luke pinned the Brooklyn Brawler
Shawn Michaels pinned Bushwhacker Butch
WWF IC Champion Bret Hart defeated Kamala (w/ Harvey Wippleman & Kimchee) via disqualification when Kimchee interfered; after the bout, Kamala accidentally splashed Wippleman when Bret pulled him in front of him
Sgt. Slaughter & Crush (sub. for Davey Boy Smith) defeated the Mountie & Repo Man after Mountie accidentally shocked his own partner with the shock stick when Crush moved out of the way
Tatanka pinned Rick Martel with a roll up
The Nasty Boys defeated Owen Hart & Koko B. Ware when Saggs pinned Koko with an elbowsmash off the top
WWF World Champion Randy Savage pinned Ric Flair (w/ Mr. Perfect) at 20:00 with a roll up; Jim Duggan was the guest referee for the bout

This is also the arena which held the in-ring return of Shawn Michaels and Brock Lesnar's first WWE world title win over The Rock @ss '02, IMO the greatest SS of all time.
