Rhodes was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2007. ?If it wasn?t for the fans all throughout the state of Florida, there would be no American Dream? said Rhodes. ?Initially we said the tour would only take place during the month of July but having the chance to come to Brooksville and personally say thank you to those fine folks was too good to pass up.?

The Dream Tour stops at the Brooksville Armory located at 16836 Springhill Drive on Saturday, August 21st. Dusty Rhodes will be available prior to the show to meet and sign autographs for fans in attendance. Free Dusty Rhodes bobble heads will also be available to Gold Circle Ticket Holders.
