Who's still there then? Kev? Conair? Ben Urich? I know Ben Urich still tweets things sometimes. His wife passed away unfortunately Aw man, that's awful. I always liked chatting with Ben, hope he's ok wherever he is now. Who's still there then? Kev? Conair? Ben Urich? ‘Kev, Conair, Wells, Me, Ryan, Dante, and Rob are still regulars. Pimp and some of the others pop in sometimes still. Bens long gone. Man, those names throw up some memories. I used to be Jamie F on there.

I was a member but they hated me so I ended up deleting. I remember the Banter forum. We did have some good times back in the day.

I wonder how many of the members we remember that aren't here anymore have died. im good friends with Gonzo Customs, we even got to meet up several times while i was visiting family in texas. Gonzo is an original member from 2001 or 2002 when afr closed. just a couple weeks ago he had several Ha's out of no where, but they were able to put a stent in and hes been feeling great since. They think it might have been from covid, as he had it but had no symptoms. Mark is tall as crap like 6'3-6'5 or so, im just standing on a curb lol Attachment DeletedI think everyone still remembers the Quirks Customs incident :/

Please tell the story he was an active customizer here who did hasbro customs. he was also a wrestler, got killed in a match when a guy doing a moonsualt to the outside tripped. Quirk tried to catch him and the dudes rib basically crushed quirks head. There was no wrestling mats on the outside. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Quirk

The other guy in the Spider/Quirk incident is a wrestler in my area who's still semi-active today. He and his tag-team partner are frequent flyers with my local indie of choice. I didn't start going to their shows til 2016, and I'd known about the Quirk thing for a while but didn't know the other guy involved and was shocked to find out it was him. Occasionally you'll get the odd edge-lord who tries to bring it up and make him out to be a murderer or something because wrestling fans are filth.

SP was made in response to Spices banning. And he’s not on there anymore either so 😂 Is that place still going? Wow. I think 2017/18 was the last time I was on there. Island of misfits toys

Danny Quirk was a great guy. I still have the Hasbro MOC Hogan 3 that he Sold to me instead of a higher offer because he could tell that I wanted it more. I used to love his Hasbro customs. I’d check that site regularly. It sucks that a cool guy like that got taken by a stroke of terrible luck.

Just went a little further down the Danny Quirk rabbit hole. The promoter of that show passed away about six years ago. He's a New England Pro Wrestling Hall of Famer who was apparently trained by Killer Kowalski (or at least at the Kowalski school).
