...after 20+ years as a fan, I finally got to meet Bobby "The Brain" Heenan. He's a huge hero of mine, and I'm willing to bet he's a herof of pretty much everyone in the Classics forum.
He can't talk much due to his surgeries, but his wife was there and communicates for him. I told him how much I'd enjoyed him over the years, and told a little story about how my Grandfather never cared much for wrestling but he would sit in his chair and listen to Bobby & Gorilla as though it was the radio, and just crack up laughing at their stuff. He got a kick out of that.
Anyway, Bobby was in good spirits and considering everything he's been through, he looked great. Thought you guys might want to know. Here's my pic!
