This reference is actually from the very first WWF wrestling. Which produced such hits as "Eat your heart out Rick Springfield" by Jimmy Hart, "Grab them Cakes", by the JYD, and of course Capt n' Lou Albano's history of music.

I guess I'm one of the only people who remembers that whole Capt' n Lou, Cindy Lauper, Goonies connection.

WCW Commentator Tony Schiavone acknowledged Marella's death (at Bobby "The Brain" Heenan's request) on the WCW Monday Nitro taping held after he died, even though Marella never worked for WCW, afterwords Heenan broke down in tears and left the announce booth.

When Bobby Heenan was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2004, in his acceptance speech, he paid tribute to Monsoon, saying "I wish Monsoon were here."

In 2007, when Anthony Carelli made his debut with the WWE, as a tribute to Marella, he was given the ring name "Santino Marella".

I think Jimmy Supafly Snukka is also either dead or heading there.

He takes peoples tickets and tells them which side of the hallway their movie is playing on. It's a regal cinema in the Knoxville Center Mall in Knoxville, TN. I don't know if he works for the money or works for the hell of it? I have a friend that took his pic, I'll try to dig it up when I get home, can't access myspace from work lol.
