Lou Albano ...now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time.

Wow - used to watch him (and MANY others) a lot. RIP Cap't Lou.

Yea I seen that. While I dont follow Profession Wrestling aymore, havent since 1987, I also seen he is in the WWE hall of fame.

Go to that website and it is like a walk down memory lane.

I remember watching the WWF on WOR channel 9 at midnight on Saturdays in the late 70's and early 80's when wrestling was still an underground sport. Captain Lou never failed to entertain with his over the top interviews.

I lost interest in wrestling when it became commercialized.

Man, takes me back to the good ol' days of WWF. Down here in the south central US, we also had Mid-South Wrestling. Now THAT was some good stuff.

I remember watching Capt. Lou, among many others, every Saturday morning in the 80's. It was low-budget, and awesome!!!

RIP Capt. Lou.

Was he the one that played the Dad on Cyndi Laupers' "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" video? It think he was.

 

[heavyhitter]

Yep he sure was.
