Did it ever bother anyone else that he always he gave them out to kids who could afford front row tickets? Those brats have enough already, Hitman. Yes, it bothered me too. He should have taken his time and strolled through the crowd, looking for a dirty-faced kid with ratty clothing. He should have insisted on smelling the kid before giving him the glasses. That would have proved he was the champion of all people, everywhere.

My parents bought me a pair of those from the WWF Magazine catalog. I wore them to the first day of third grade, and my teacher thought I had some sort of eye condition. She was a bitch though.

it had to have been either 1988 or early 1989. my first house show was in April of 1989 and my cousin got a pair from the merch stand. and he got the original silver ones and not the pink ones that I got a few years later.

At some point in the early 90s, I was taken to an eye doctor for a check-up and they had to dilate my eyes. They gave me a pair of sunglasses to wear for the day until what they filled my eyes with went away. The glasses were almost the exact same kind as the "Bret Hart" glasses.

I read that they were blind midgets dressed as children. They were till they got the Hitman glasses. Bret could heal the blind.

One thing is accessibility, the other is to make the front row tickets seem worth the price. I think many kids pushed their parents to buy them front row seats so they maybe have a chance at getting Bret's glasses or that headbutt thing from Misterio.

Did you put her in a sharpshooter? I should have. It was quite a shock to me as up until then I had really nice, younger teachers. Then here comes this mean older lady who definitely did not approve of the way I was dressed the first day (I also wore a "Hulk Rules" shirt). Yeah, 4/10 all the way, and certainly no boners.

Now I remember one of the late 80s or early 90s catalogs had the silver ones for sale.
