    I got action shots from the bleachers at the local INDY pro wrestling Friday night.. one of those in charge asked for that perspective...

    Their previous two events I only had P&S.... this was much better.. from the bleachers as mentioned and featured Mick Foley and Terry Funk as well as some lesser known but national names.

    The Photo "Gallery" from Friday. I will caution that the final match there are some bloody photos if anyone does go look.

    I've been a fan of Pro Wrestling for pretty near 30 years (seeing how I'm 34, I dunno exactly when I first remember watching the AWA) and don't care about the 'it's fake' stuff and all that.

    I almost forgot.. great pictures.. especially if you don't follow the 'sport' to know what to anticipate happening, cause it's hard for people who don't regularly watch, to know what's coming next!
