ok, this coming Wednesday (yes the day after christmas) I'm schedualed to have my first match in 7 months, however recently it's been snowing or raining everyday and the owner (the worlds biggest mark thats in the buis) set up an outdoor show, so I'm a little angry right now because there is almost a 100% chance that this is going to be cancelled because he wanted an outdoor event in the middle of winter, and the weather is as I said bad lately, the booker just talked to me today to tell me that it may not happen, and it took all of my strength not to cuss the guy out over the phone, now then my question, am I wrong for being angry at this idiot, or was it just an honost mistake that anyone could make

As a promoter myself when I book a show i look at everything leading into it. Location, time of year (A show right after Christmas is stupid) and if outdoors the weather patern for that time. You have every right to be pissed, the promoter should look into these things, apparently he don't know how the f*** to run a show taken from such a huge mistake.

The guy had high hopes for a winter outdoor show. If it gets canceled life goes on. Seriously, thats the best I got.

If it gets canceled you have your out to say I'm not working for you anymore. People will understand and you wont look like a dick for leaving you "home" promotion.

I guess, but it just pisses me off that he would do an outdoor event this time of year, though the loss of the pay day isn't bad since I was doing it for free since the money was/is supposed to go to the local firehouse |

Bad promoters are a dime a dozen. If you feel screwed get booked somewhere else. The problem is in this line of work you'll end up getting screwed often.

At least if you were getting screwed by Pat Patterson you'd be getting well paid - you might even become a tag team champion! *ta-da-boom-boom-CRASH*

At least this will make for an interesting read in your wrestling bio in which you bad mouth everyone, especially Ric Flair.

I don't think you're wrong man. I'm not trying to talk junk about someone I don't know, but it's kind of dumb to book an outdoor event in WINTER! I don't care where you live, it's just dumb!
I worked 2 outdoor events before, and both times they were in spring.
