I've been on a "no wrestling" week since I got home from the TNTHOF on Sunday. Going online tonight for the first time to look at wrestling related boards. We're having meetings next week to start planning for 2025, and we'll be announcing the dates next week!
Thanks to the Filsinger Games Community for their support of the Tragos/Thesz Hall of Fame in 2024. We appreciate everyone's efforts at fundraising and attending the weekend!
I'm excited to share that at the social last week, I announced that the Thursday night event will now be called the "Legends of Wrestling Community Kickoff Reception".

Over a month ago I preordered a T&T HOF lifetime member t-shirt, and got my lifetime membership. The shirt came today which I thought was pretty quick after the weekend events. Came in a cool bag too! I'm wondering about the few things listed you get with the lifetime membership if that will come later. It's all good though.
You will receive:
- Discount on AA Passes for our TNTHOF Weekend for life.
- Free admission into the Museum for life.
- Name plaque displayed.
- TNTHOF Lifetime Member lapel pin.
- Membership card signed by Jim Miller and Gerry Brisco.
- Access to Special event during our TNTHOF weekend.

Just listening to the Arn podcast and good job Chad on getting a shout out directly from the man. Arn, Brock, Erin, and the whole Anderson group were wonderful! I had the honor of picking them up and taking them back to the CR airport. I have a good story I'll share on the upcoming Uncharted Territory Podcast where Arn and I had a bonding moment. Hearing this leads me to believe you were able to sign Arn to the game. I know you can neither confirm nor deny this though. Glad you had an enjoyable time.🙂 |

I did see your name with the other lifetime members at the museum last weekend. That is very cool that my name was added that quickly. I was wondering about just the couple physical items the lifetime membership comes with like the membership card signed by Jerry Brisco, the lapel pin. I like the other things it comes with like free museum admission, etc. |

I know you can neither confirm nor deny this though. Glad you had an enjoyable time.🙂 Paul, that assumes much. I cannot begin to tell you how nice some legends are just in general but then for a myriad of reasons (legends deals, deals with action figure companies or trading card companies, indigestion, lack of readily available coffee, and finding out their cookie was oatmeal raisin when they thought it was chocolate chip) say no. I can say that Dr. D and only the first time I met him, Cowboy Bob Orton Jr., were the only two legends I have ever met that have been a bit prickly (Orton) to down right mean (Dr. D). You just never know, so I assume nothing with legends and their willingness to sign based on how they treat fans. Although, if not signed, Vegas, Brock Anderson is a name that I ABSOLUTELY want to see in a future indies release. The guy can go, and makes James Jeffries seem mean, which is saying something, since James is one of the nicest, most humble, and respectful guys in the business. Brock Anderson was super humble and was nice every time I interacted with him. |

Brock Anderson was super humble and was nice every time I interacted with him. Oh, I know. I'm not getting my hopes up. I remember someone (I forget who) mentioning on one of the other forums here that they once approached Harvey Wippleman about being in the game and saying that while he complimented the game he politely said he wasn't interested. I guess what I meant to say was that his positive interaction with Arn gives me more confidence that we might see him in the game someday. As you mentioned though there's a multitude of factors that could prevent that from happening. |

Plus, relatable. I think we all have been there at one time or another.

If not, you can probably contact the museum. Contact info can be found on their Facebook page. |
