re: Mid South Wrestling at The Centroplex, Blackham, and LC Civic Center Was a Thing

When I was a kid, around 1970 my dad and his best friend took several of us to "Dixie Wrestling" in Baton Rouge. We saw Grizzly Smith and Luke Brown wrestle some guys with masks on, can't remember the names. Anyway, in an earlier match two guys were fighting and one hit the other and the one that was hit said "What did you do that for?" (we were at ringside because we were kids) That's when I realized "Rasslin' ain't real". Broke that 11 year old little boy's heart. lol
