View Full Version : Celebrity Sighting near the AT!!!! Sargent Slaughter!
So yesterday I'm on my way home from The Gathering and I stopped at the Dairy Queen in Bland. When I approached the counter I notice this BIG DUDE with a jutting chin. He was on line ahead of me. The girl behind the counter went in the back and came back out and said to the BIG DUDE, "Sir, what is your name?" The guy answered with some common name, and she said, "Oh, my co-worker thought you were Sargent Slaughter (http://www.wwe.com/superstars/halloffame/sgtslaughter/profile/)." To which he answered, "I am."
Right there in Bland, live in the flesh! The old wrestler - Sargent Slaughter! A young kid then emerged from the kitchen with a slip of paper and said, "Sir, may I have your autograph", to which the gentle giant kindly obliged.
I thanked him for some entertaining moments, and we all went on our way. Pretty cool!

Here is a picture of Sarge being sold on e-Bay of all things: http://i16.ebayimg.com/04/i/07/9d/b0/58_2.JPG
When I was a teenager in the 80's, and wrestling and Sargent Slaughter were really popular, I bussed his table at the restaurant I worked at. There are a lot of 80's wrestlers where I live here. Hulk Hogan, Macho Man, Bushwackers, Nasty Boys. Sarge was also really nice to me and gave me an autograph.
What was his signature move? The "Cobra Clutch?" I actually feel dumber for knowing that. It's funny what sticks in your head from when you were 12 and still thought the WWF was real.

It's not real? :eek: Don't tell me THAT!
I wonder if Sargent Rock is a fan of Sargent Slaughter.
