But those in color would advertise so, such as the old FBI show. Commercial went something like:

"The FBI......IN COLOR!!!"

The beer and cigarette manufacturers were very quick to make their commercials in color.

Do you remember the Friday Night Fights (boxing) or wrestling from Chicago??

[OLDBLUE]

Gillette Cavlcade of sports. Fiday night boxing. I don't remember "where " the wrestling came from, but do remember Duke Snyder (the good guy), Danny McLish (pure evil), Gorgious George ( no more adjectives needed).
Sunday I was into the Chicago Cardinals -Ollie (33) Matson from Trinity Texas and when USF stood for University of San Francisco.

Yep...that wrestling was Wrestling From Chicago. It was great entertainment....especially when the girls wrestled!

Wasn't one of he announcers for either boxing or wrestling Jack Dreeves?

Thanks for the info, Russdawg. I had no idea that May is National Bike month.

70TECHGRAD, are you a bike rider too?

No.....but it would be nice if there was a riding trail around here.

[OLDBLUE]

Bike riding is a Don W thing, I believe; or is it Dawg 80. One of those two "feisty" ones that are busy defending their cred. right now.

I don't remember girl wrestlers back in black & white TV days. Also, my mind has cleared up a little. I think it was Danny McShay, not Mclish. Also recall Duke "Keimuko" or sumpin' like that.

I remember "Cowboy Bill Watts", "Scandar Achbar" and "Dr. X" from the old Ark-la-tex wrestling. Looked like it took place at the TV studio.

The girl wrestling matches were few and far between. I guess there weren't many female wrestlers...and the few that were would probably rate a 2 on a 10 scale in beauty.

Need to get this thread back to the top of the page.

Don't know why this thread won't move up!!!!! Maybe OLDBLUE needs to put another post on here. This thread has done nothing since his last post.

I have a pretty good "thread kill" average.
