JR's Blog: JR in Vegas at CAC

Posted: Apr 21st 2010 By: mikeiles

Hello from Las Vegas. Having a great time at CAC. Here's more...

The 45th Cauliflower Alley Club is in full swing w/ approximately 450-500 folks registered. Big turnout.

Had beverages w/ the always entertaining Terry Funk Monday. Wish we had a camera recording our long overdue visit. Classic stuff.

Met the world's oldest, living pro wrestler who's 90 and regaled in his stories of Ed 'Strangler' Lewis and working w/ Leroy McGuirk.

Saw Harley Race getting around in a motorized wheel chair.

Customized title belt made for this event is spectacular. Someone here is going to win it via raffle.

Will see my boyhood hero Danny Hodge today. I'm like a kid w/ a unlimited Toys R Us gift certificate.

Nice seeing Bob Geigel and Bill Kirsten from KC.

Lots of young wrestlers here seeking advise and work.

Visited w/ Tammy Stych and Dawn Marie. Both ladies look great.

Tons of cool, vintage memorabilia.

Stone Cold arrives Wednesday.

Finished long day w/ a visit w/ old friend Ted DiBiase.

Working on bullet points of my speech until 3 a.m.

Expect to hear from WWE regarding my next assignment w/ them in a day or two. Contrary to what is being carelessly reported, WWE is still my top priority as it relates to wrestling gigs.

Amazed at the amount of inaccurate info regarding my future. Can only say that my future is bright, that I'm very happy, and looking forward to an interesting next few days.

When something is finalized I will accurately report it. Until then, be leery of all the nonsense that you read on line. Many interesting, high road projects are being presented to me of which I've previously discussed. Nothing is a done deal. I'm merely listening to some of them. Many projects that the internet are reporting are completely false. You can believe that or not. Whatever I decide to do will be things that are classy, fun and things that I have been wanting to become involved with.

Right now I'm enjoying a special week for my wife and me and hoping to sell some JR's products to you here on line.

Now the conspiracy theorists can go back to work. Have a great day because we certainly are. Thanks.

Boomer Sooner!

J.R.
