Andre was a great legend.....He was one of the reasons why I figured out that wrestling was fake ;)
Richfield Coliseum in Cleveland I had tickets to see WWF (at the time) and it was Andre the Giant vs. The Ultimate Warrior. Andre was standing in the ring waiting for UW to come out.....UW comes RUNNING down the entrance around the ring twice, jumps up...bounces off two ropes, drop kicks Andre and pins him and end of match......MAYBE a total of two minutes. Andre had a good 2' on UW too! He TOWERED over people.
My favorite scene in Princess Bride was when Inigo Montoya holds up Andre's hand and compares it to his....WOW!
Astros stole my signature....
