Randy "Macho Man" Savage dead at 58

Post by BDKJMU »

Was one of my favorite WWF wrestlers back when I watched it way back in junior HS. Instead of "Oh, yeahhh", its Oh, nooo".

Perhaps because Savage was a minor league catcher before he joined WWE.

Also perhaps because Yahoo! Sports reported on it.

I'll give you credit for trying real hard, SH, but it doesn't change the fact professional wrestling is nothing more than a (barely) glorified soap opera.

An autopsy revealed that wrestling great Randy "Macho Man" Savage died from heart disease and not from any injury sustained in his May 20 car crash.

The St. Petersburg Medical Examiner's Office found that the 58-year-old had an enlarged heart with hardened coronary arteries. He became unresponsive while driving his Jeep Wrangler on a Florida highway in May and crashed into a tree. While the auto accident left minor cuts and bruises, the heart problems were the official cause of death of the wrestler.

Dude bit it less than a mile from where I'm playing golf tomorrow. Maybe I'll stop and pay homage.

You told me you have never left Missoula County? You resided here solely for Lolo Creek.

Key words in my response were: "when I lived in Florida". I don't live in Florida anymore, Sweetpea. I now live in Missoula County.

I never said I've never left Missoula County. I said I REALLY don't like doing it! And, the last time I did was in 2008...thank you very much!

I love Lolo Creek! The fish there are scared shitless of me...and for good reason, too!
