Tri-City American Legion

I took my nephew and his friends here on Friday night to see a Western Wrestling Association match. Every few weeks they do a semi-​professional wrestling event at the Legion in New Brighton. I stopped into the bar for a beer. It’s a cheap place for a drink. $ 3 for a tall beer or $ 1.50 for a short tap. They had a meat raffle going on dinner was cheap. I think it was $ 6.99 all you can eat fish fry and $ 9.99 steak dinner.
The wrestling match was fun. $ 8 for adults and $ 3 for kids. The kids loved it. As per usual, the wrestlers come out and toss insults (tame for the kids) to the crowd and other wrestlers. My group of 8 year olds pointed out rather quickly that they aren’t really hitting each other, but there were some decent supplexes, close lines and body slams. I had a fun time, I used to love wrestling when I was a kid and it was fun to see it again. Although these guys could really work on their lines. It’s not as convincing when you tell the crowd how the other wrestler is an idiot and weak, when it sounds like you are trying to remember what to say.
