Snow And Head Hit Waterville

Snow And Head Hit Waterville

Posted: Mar 25th 2010 By: CMBurnham

Pro wrestling fans know the name Al Snow. The rest of the population is unfamiliar with the man and his plastic head.

Snow, 46, wrestled in several popular organizations for more than a decade before moving to the independent circuit. On Sunday night, he was part of the Pro Wrestling Alliance card at Glo, a nightclub on Silver Street.

"After 28 years, I still get excited, and I still get nervous before I perform," Snow said. "You're in business for yourself, and you're a product. You gotta be aggressive. It's a little like truly running away with the circus."

Snow's gimmick is the plastic head, which he talks to and apparently hears. He came up with the idea after reading a book on abnormal psychology which featured a woman who talked to inanimate objects, and believed she was sane and the objects were crazy.

Snow said the original "Head" was a foam head he found at Alhambra Arena in Philadelphia. Two fellow wrestlers later gave him a beautician's head, which has "HELP ME" written backwards across its forehead. Snow said he has kept the same female head ever since.

"You gotta be faithful," Snow said. "It's a very monogamous relationship."

The crowd was small on Sunday (about 25 people) but they clearly loved Snow and Head. After several bouts, Snow was part of the main event in a non-title match against PWA heavyweight champion Mark Moment.

Snow had the fans laughing and energized as he strutted around the ring and played to the crowd. A couple times, he placed Head in a corner of the ring and told it not to move. He won the match after clubbing Moment in the head with Head, then pinning Moment, leading the fans to chant, "Head! Head! Head! Head!"

"Amazingly, still, everybody loves Head," Snow said. "I never have understood, but thank God every day that people made a connection with it, and are entertained by it. Through the grace of God, and a plastic head, I have a career."

Snow, who was a football extra in the movie "Rudy," hints his wrestling days may end soon, calling it "a young man's game." Still, the experience as an independent wrestler is nothing if not interesting.

"Let me give you an example," Snow began. "Last year, I go to Egypt for four or five days, and it's gorgeous, and there's a lot of people, and you're treated like a star.

"And the very next week, you're at a county fair, and you're dressing in a horse stall."

But there are also people Snow meets who are happy just to have a few moments with him. One of those was Jean Tewksbury, who drove up from Waldoboro for the show, and got Snow to autograph a picture early in the evening.

"I like his persona," Tewksbury said. "He came off like he was crazy, but he was fun. It was cool when I saw him walk in. I didn't expect him to take the time to stop. He did, and I'm still shaking."
