During a MSN conversation I was having with a girl I know who only knows some wrestling since her ex bf use to watch it. We were talking about Benoit (this was three days after the tragedy) and I mention Eddie Guerrero's death. She says "I thought Eddie's death was fake. They kept mentioning him on TV and blew up his low rider at one point I remember and Vince pretended to be dead. I thought it was way of him taking a break and to comeback." Keep in mind she didn't know about the tribute show and only see's wrestling whenever she was at her bf's house or one of my friends house.
Also I remember someone created this thread about a year ago and I have to mention this story I read from the other thread. I might have butchered it a little bit but it needs to be said. Some poster said he was in the crowd during the Undertaker vs. Austin buried alive match and when Austin started burying The Undertaker, some middle aged man started to cry and his wife tells him "He's gone Earl, he's gone for good."

This isn't really something anyone said, but it is pretty funny.
I was at Bound for Glory in "Atlanta"(Yeah TNA, hate to tell ya, but Gwinnett is about 45 mins outside of Atlanta) sitting about six rows deep from the ring. Some typical looking big fat, greasy long haired guy in a black t-shirt is coming back about mid show from the concession stands with a whole thing of nachos and a big ass coke about 3 rows deep.
Well, he's trying to get by people by walking on the folding chairs because everyone was standing up during the match...dude steps too far on the inside part of a chair and just completely busts his ass and gets chips and drink all over everyone near him...the guy went down HARD....it was awesome. I laughed my ass off.

Reminds me of the "Stupid Things Said By Stupid Marks" section of The Armpit.
At one show some fans were yelling out "you are a murder kane! you killed katie vick!" and this was a few years after that angle.
Here are some from The Armpit:
"Batista's not on steroids, no way. I see guys that big in the gym all the time." - Some guy at my work. You know, if a guy's in the gym, then he can't be on steroids, right? Right??
"I guess good wrestling doesn't run in the family!" - a fan, yelling at David Flair at WCW SuperBrawl '00.
"I gotta admit, I like Hulk Hogan's new look a lot better than his old look." - Straw Hat Guy, the famous ECW ringsider, referring to when Hulk wore black in his brief heel turn tease in late '95. Hey wait a minute, I thought ECW fans hated WCW and never watched it?
"Get a shorter song!" - Some kid at the San Leandro indie show, yelling at a wrestler who chose the slow-building entrance music Terry Funk used in 1989.
"The original Ultimate Warrior died because of steroids and his arm bands were tied up so tightly that he got a heart attack." (thanks to Peter from Canada)

I haven't seen TOO many weirdos, although in the mid 90's a show i was at hand Steve Austin when he was still a heel vs HBK. A guy behind me was loudly cheering the heels all night, and giving pointers like "Put your legs on the rope Steve!" and such.

My brother-in-law thinks there's been atleast 4 Undertakers, and 2 Kane's. He thinks the first Kane was one of the old Undertaker's whose face was badly burned during a pyro mishap.
He even claims he saw Kane at Home Depot around 2000 or so with Undertaker and Sara and he had a towel around his face. I've tried telling him otherwise, but its like talking to a brick wall.

One guy at work told me that Steve Austin was married to Sable before he married Debra and that he saw it on an A&E Biography show. He was so sure that he even dropped the famous "you wanna bet"? line we all used as a kid.

Not said at a show but still funny regardless- Last summer I was selling a bunch of junk at the local flea market.I needed cash so I was selling some dvds,figures,etc. I had the 1980s wrestling buddies of Hulk Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior. A guy picks up the Warrior one and says to me, "You know he's dead don't you?" I said "Huh? No he's still alive.I think you may be thinking of the Renegade." The guy then says to me,"No he's dead he over dosed on steroids and his heart exploded." All I could say was "Wow" rather than keeping him going on by telling him that he was wrong. I heard that exact same story when I was a kid, except it was a mixture of cocaine and steriods. I believe this was right after the Ultimate Warrior returned to the WWF the first time. Also I have another messed up story. I believe it was at a WCW house show in late '98. There was a couple behind us that looked like bikers. Well the women was screaming during all of the matches, but not in a women like matter, with a very deep growling voice. I thought it was rather odd, but it was a biker girl, they can be a little rough around the edges. Well I am sure most of you know where this story is going. I went to the urinal and while walking in noticed the "women" that was sitting behind me using a urinal in the mens bathroom, it was more than a little wierd, but after listening to him yelling the whole time it certainly explained alot. I also love the fact that this thread proves alot of people's stereotypes about wrestling fans. Although I would say mine is probably outside of that box and more on the strange side. Especially being in an extremely conservative city like Fort Wayne, Indiana.

A guy behind me was loudly cheering the heels all night, and giving pointers like "Put your legs on the rope Steve!" and such. That reminds me of the Wrestlemania 10 match between Bret & Owen. At the beginning of the match you can hear a fan yell loudly "COME ON OWEN...OWEN!" Even Bret turned around and acknowledged him. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrvPpMg-jOQ @4:04, you can hear him again @ 5:34 Here's another story, not during a match, but people overheard me at an autograph signing. My friend and I are on line to see DDP. After a while someone announces DDP will be taking a short break and DDP gets up and leaves. I tell my friend this is a good time for me to hit the bathroom. I'm at the urinal when a guy comes in at the urinal next to me. It takes me a few seconds to realize Diamond Dallas Page is taking a piss next to me. I go to wash my hands and notice in the mirror DDP walks right out of the bathroom without washing his hands. I go back on line and tell my friend the story. The people all around us hear this and when it was their turn to get an autograph from DDP, no one would shake his hand. LOL.

I once heard someone say that triple h was banned from using the pedigree because he killed someone using it during a real life situation.

At a recent WWE house show, the woman sitting behind us told us her husband was supposed to work the show, but got caught in traffic. She had her six-year-old son with her. During a Khali/Escobar match, the boy said, "Kick his damn butt!" His mother told him never to use language like that. The next match was Kizarny/Chavo, and she proceeded to call Kizarny a "faggot" and told him to "kiss his boyfriend," for the entire duration of the match.

I vividly remember attending a house show in 1989 with my Grandfather where he got so excited at seeing the Rockers wrestle the Brain Busters he forearmed me into the aisle and proceed to tell me 'I bought you some Pepsi" and of course as I found later it was someone elses drink and not one that he had bought me..my Grandfather is a unique man.

i remember when i went to USA and went to a house show, the main event was Cena & Triple H vs Legacy. When Cena made his entance, i man told a kid beside me "here's your hero" and the kid just stared at him and said:"F**K OFF"
that just goes to show you, WWE may be PG but that doesn't include the audience

oh, i remembered another one, it was when Undertaker was making his entrance and a guy wearing a TNA shirt next to me said "WOULD YOU PLEASE PICK IT UP" and then added one of the funniest things that i've ever heard when he said,"YOU WALK LIKE MY GRANDPARENTS F**K!"

IF only the Undertaker had heard that, stopeed, went over to the guy and started taping his fists.

I hear the funniest stuff not during the actual events, but listening to people stand around talking about wrestling before/after the events.
I think they hear some random person on a forum make a joke, and then just pass the information along as pure gospel for the next 6 months.
My favorite was a guy that INSISTED that Randy Savage was going to end Undertaker's streak at mania 23, and said it was in the Observer.

"Big Show wasn't the Giant. The Giant died of a brain tumor in 1999" This reminds me. I have a friend that, to do this day, still believes that Big Show is Andre the Giant's son. I keep telling him that was just an angle, in to which he replies "Then why is he so big?"
