I know this was talked about years back but it's been a while and there are plenty of new board members. Hopefully this is the most relevant to post it on (not sure now that Taz is gone).

1st off, that was a loooong time ago and I been hit in the head a lot so I'll try to remember best I could! We were working in Tampa (prob 1993 or 94) for the Eastern Championship Wrestling...(before it became extreme) ECW. As most of you know, back than Tommy and I were very tight friends and we traveled together and obviously stayed in the same hotels most of the time.
So, it was prob around 3am and I couldn't sleep so I left my room to use the pay phone in the lobby...like I said looong time ago! So this van pulls up to the front of the hotel and several teenagers jump out that are loud, drunk and annoying. I'm sitting in the lobby watching these goofs stumble in while I'm reading an old newspaper & spitting Skoal juice (before they had long cut!) in a cup! Dreamer ends up showing up...lord knows were he just came from (lol)!
Tommy see's these "kids" doing what they are doing and gets just as pissed as me...because they were giving the young lady behind the counter a ton of BULLS##T because she could not find there reservation! Calling her names and freaking out acting like jackoffs which pissed both Tommy and I off! There was about 8 guys total (roadies also) so i look at Tommy and say, "you ready?" and The Innovator of Violence just simple says"yup"! We walk over and i tell them to relax and to chill because the girl was afraid....so the loudest guy (which was the smallest guy & he had green hair) walks up to us and say to mind our fu%*cking business! I laughed in his face and told him That him and his friends were going to end up going to the emergency room at Tampa General if he didn't back up and shut up! He backed up and said that Tommy and I were outnumbered and Dreamer told him that he needed more guys which was hilarious! Meanwhile the girl must have hit a police button or something because all of sudden cops were there and that was that.
The next day Tommy and I are packing our bags (we were rooming together) to head to the arena and we have MTV on in the room and they had a segment on this hot new band and im looking at them and I see the little dude with the green hair and I'm bugging out saying that's the A-HOLE from last night....it was Greenday.

Pretty funny story. I would have been scared if it was just Taz who approached me.
