I don't see how he could afford to attend all these shows, especially if he had a regular job. Does anybody know who this guy is?

I doubt it. He was at a little TNA house show in my hometown in Arkansas in Jan of 2014

I don't think he works for them, but he most likely has some sort of connection with somebody working there because he's been a superfan for so long. Recently he's been sitting in the friends and family section on the same side as the hard camera. I've had those same seats before, and I got them directly from a superstar. So not a plant, he just has a hookup.

His wife passed away and they give him free tickets when WWE is in his area. They did a interview with him on a Raw episode. Remember? ![???](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/huh.gif)

Remember? ![???](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/huh.gif) Someone made a thread about this last year calling him a scumbag for using the insurance money to attend those shows. For all we know his wife said spend the money on what makes him happy. And we all know WWE makes this guy happy. He could spend the money on something far worse.

I thought it was mentioned at some point or another that WWE comps him most of his tickets? It would make sense, given his location. He obviously has some sort of connection, because he wouldn't be able to have nearly identical seats for every show otherwise.
He was at a house show I went to last summer. Seemed like a cool guy.

He was in the ring with Bryan on Occupy Raw and I remember him being right there next to him, so I'd assume he has some kind of relationship with the company on that basis and that he's everywhere.

If my wife passed away I would be doing everything imaginable to keep my mind off the pain of losing my best friend. Good for him.

Hell he should be inducted into the HoF

I say good for him making the most of life.

He also appeared on Deal or No Deal with some WWE superstars. Can't remember how much he won but he probably used it for a lot of WWE tickets.

In a way, yes. He doesn't get paid to be there but he gets tickets to the shows as a plant to start WWE-approved chants and just generally be a holier-than-thou piece of crap to everyone around him.

Whatever happened to Vladmir the Superfan? Vladimir doesnt goto shows....at least hardly ever nowadays. I cant remember when, but he said he didnt like the direction anymore. I did see him at WM 28 axxess though. Sign Guy does NOT work for WWE. Im sure he gets comped, but dont know for sure. He doesnt get comped to every show though. Certain people will get moved to hard camera bc WWE does not want the camera to be on the same fans all the time for long periods of time. They will literally move you. As far as how he affords to goto the shows.....I dont know his entire financial portfolio, but I do know that he did some shoot interview maybe 6 or 7 years ago where he goes in depth about being on the brink of losing his home, filing bankruptcy twice, burning through all his Deal Or No Deal Money on WWE and his wife threatening to leave him several times. The host even asks him if he is in financial peril, why does he keep going and SG replied he is sick and he cant stop himself. He goes on about how its the most important thing in his life and he cant stop.

He has multiple seats at every show too. He runs back and forth
