The Wrestler

That's what I was told wrestling was like at the South Broadway Athletic Club. Like the movie The Wrestler.

It was.

The whole thing was equal parts awesome and depressing.

The whole experience is a bit surreal. The ring, the crowd, the wrestlers. But there is something about half the crowd taking it as a serious evening out and the other half doing it purely for the campy factor.

I'm glad I finally went and saw it in person, and I had fun with the folks I was out with.

But I don't think I could go again.
