I know many of you, if not most, aren't wrestling fans. That's cool. Allow me to indulge, for those of us who are.

Ric Flair, the greatest wrestler of all time, had his last match (at least as a regularly active wrestler) tonight. A 35 year long career.

And I was there. :)

Thank you. I know wrestling seems goofy to some, but it's RIC Goddamn FLAIR. :)

And I have to say, as a first live PPV experience.... Wrestlemania is a fantastic one. :)

I loved wrestling when I was younger. I went to the first couple Survivor Series when they were on Thanksgiving in Cleveland.

Ah, Survivor Series. The Thanksgiving Eve Tradition. ;)

I've been to a few WWE tapings. But never a PPV. And this was FANTASTIC. The crowd was amazing. I can't recall when I've had more fun. And....

Shawn Micheals, overall, is my favorite of all time. It's always, ALWAYS, been a dream of mine to see him perform live. To be able to see him, finally, and actually see him against Ric Flair in his final match?

I won't lie. To a wrestling fan like me, this was a dream come true.

I don't watch wrestling anymore, but for the last couple years, I've had a lot more appreciation for Flair in the ring. His matches were a lot of fun to watch. He made guys like Batista look like they could actually wrestle...

Must've been awesome to be there.

Lucky bastich. I missed out on the Wrestlemania X8 (my buddy got to go) and Wrestlemania 22 (in chicago) which I was planning to go but things got in the way.

I like wrestling, I don't have the passion I did before in the 90's but I still try to watch the monday show...whether it's entertaining is another subject.

oh and congrats to flair for a great career, they apparently put on a good match. kudos to michaels as he did some crazy spots.

That's really the only match I wanted to see at Mania. That's awesome you were there.

There was a couple of matches that i would have liked to see. The Money in the Bank match and Edge vs Undertaker. Edge is one of the greatest heels ever and he went to the same college I went to.

It would have been worth it if he ended Taker's streak.

Very true. I think they might save that for when 'taker actually retires though.

Also, with the 2-3 other main events they seemed to be overshadowed this year. I'm actually surprised they went last.

Yup, apparently he went to Humber for a couple of semesters before dropping out. i think it was on off the record w/ michael lansberg he mentioned this.
