WWE Smackdown! - Free Beer + Free Pizza = Overly Excited & Drunk.


So my friends Dave and his girlfriend Chris treated me and my chick to a night out. Chris works for Yahoo! who own a private box at the o2 so she managed to score us all tickets for the event and what an event it was! Pyro, loud music and sweaty men pretending to fight. Rad! It was truley one huge slice of Americana.


The night was nothing short of awesome! I had been on the receiving end of some rather lavish treatment at the o2 before but never had I sat in a corporate box. The view was great but the free bar was better! After feuling up on bottle after bottle of Becks we were then gifted with a bounty of hot, fresh, pizza. FUCKING ACE!!!



Seeing The Undertaker wrestle was cool and his live entrance live is pretty damn impressive. Unfortunately he wrestled The Big Show, who is morbidly obese. We also got to see Triple H battle Randy Orton inside a steel cage! Evan Bourne is fucking insane and his shooting star press is jaw dropping. Unfortunately we didn’t see Chis Jericho, Edge or Christian wrestle.....Christian did get power bombed through a table though.....again, rad!!!



There was a weird mix of people attending the show. Of course there were the kids who were screaming for all kinds of over priced merchandise (child t-shirts were £25), the poor parents who had been dragged there and the fun to talk to, super fans. Some guy had a replica title belt that he paid $500 to get made to his specifications. He was kind enough to let a very drunk me to pose with it.



We got on the train and then me and Dave started play fighting. The kids began to cheer us on and it escliated very quickly into a massive event. Check out this video of “The Captain” and myself locking horns on the Jubilee Line. Some spanish chick (who's camera I hit Dave in the face with) filmed the event. To quote Bill Murray, “the kids love us.”




We left the train to standing ovation from the crowd and with a new career path in mind.
