Default WWE - Monday Night Raw in Calgary

Anyone else going? Don't throw shoes or rotten food at me, but I'm going and it will be a good time I'm sure of it. I'm going to fulfill the line, "When in Rome......". Not totally sure what that's going to look like yet, but it will include a sign, and I think I may bring back an old bible quote maybe?

remember to keep the tradition alive by chanting "TABER CORN" during the main event. I think the promoters are still clueless as to what that actually is. Anyways, it's funny as hell when it comes across on live TV.

I thought about it, but couldn't get anyone to go with me, so I will watch it on TV.

Please boo HHH for me.

I love how we're a fickle bunch up here and they don't know what to do with us, too funny.

Sounds like fun. Enjoy, if your sign is anything other than what they want expect it to be confiscated.

We may bring a white board and a dry erase pen just for that reason (and for much ensuing hilarity).

Careful, the WWE likes to take away signs if you're not cheering for who they want.

I got me some cheap $20 tickets in the 2nd level. I can't wait to boo Sgt Slaughter when he comes out and cheer the crap out of Jericho and Orton.

That probably won't fly either. The best thing to do is bring in one sign that says something "tv friendly" on one side, and a pocket full of markers to write your real message on the back of the sign once you get into your seats.

Don't need a white board... anything white and laminated would work. And give whoever you're going with the marker.

WTF, I don't watch Wrestling but isn't Sgt Slaughter like 80 years old now? And why wasn't he in the latest Gi JOE?

I had tickets to the last time they had a show scheduled here, then Chris Benoit ruined my plans by killing his family. I don't follow it as much anymore, but the live shows are usually fun for people-watching as much as the show itself.

Sgt. Slaughter? He's still involved? That's upsetting.

My helpful reminder: the pyro is really, really loud in person.

I'll be there, somewhere on the floor. South section, I have no clue where that is exactly, but row 9. They're teasing yet another DX reunion, so HBK may return tonight.

HBK won't be there. They want DX to be a babyface group and if he comes out tonight, he'll get boo'd like crazy

I'm pretty stoked. I've got 4th row on the floor. I hope to be able to catch some teeth.

I never understood the excitement of WWE. Isn't it all prefabricated anyways?

So are tv shows and movies. I guess you don't watch them either.

Well that's why I leave it up to the TV for that sort of stuff. The real stuff like sports... boxing, UFC it's interesting since it's more about skill than who is more popular.

But to each their own
