The place was dirty and rundown, but it had a ton of character and I loved it. Going to things now at the TD Garden it’s such a sanitized environment. It could be Boston or Boise, Idaho, just nothing to set it apart.

It could be Boston or Boise, Idaho, just nothing to set it apart. Never been there personally, but I've seen a ton of basketball games played there on TV. The Boston Garden in the 80s was THE PLACE for basketball. The dark hardwood floor with the lime green looked so awesome.

It's crazy looking back this segment here kickstarted the legendary feud with Jake. A feud that will stand the test of time A great feud that hooked me on wrestling. Prior to that, I watched off and on the previous few years. But after the feud, I didn't miss a show, PPV, or magazine from then until around 2002/03. EDIT: Well, I stopped collecting the magazines around 95/96. I go back and forth between this feud and the Austin/Bret as my most favorite feud, both are really great.
