Stuck

Hey, we're still alive. And stuck on LA airport, so now's as good time as any to update the blog. I tried moblogging with Kablog, but although the entry was succesfully posted for some reason the main page wasn't rebuilt so no one ever saw it. I'll be writing the entries at some point for the weekend - but be warned they will mostly contain wrestling references perhaps not that interesting to most readers.

But to sum up the trip: phenomenal. It's weird - our last wrestling trip to Toronto last summer we planned for ages, this one came almost as an oversight: we decided to see if we could get just ordinary tickets to Wrestlemania 21, and got tickets that looked really poor (but turned out to be pretty good). Then later on I found out about two indy wrestling shows going on on the same weekend and we decided to do those too. And once the superstar appearances were scheduled it turned out we would miss most of them too - so we went in with very little expectations.

First of all, the indy shows were fantastic. Most of the big names on the American indy scenes were there, and the action was first class, but we also met some really cool people. We sat next to three English guys who were fun, and met some of our favourite wrestlers during the intervals - cool people who were really happy to see us and hear our opinions. We also met a fantastic WWE security guard there who got us to see some WWE superstars without queuing our asses off on Saturday which was much appreciated (and he was a really fantastic person too, honestly!). Wrestlemania totally rocked too, although by day three we were so tired we were quite happy with the peaceful seats on the top tier - view was supposed to be limited but was good, and seeing all the action from upper corner was fun.

Seems like three nights of live wrestling in a row seems to pretty much be the limit of what we can take, and although at some point we were disappointed that we hadn't got any tickets to RAW and Smackdown today and tomorrow, we're quite happy to go home today.

If only the plane would leave... More tomorrow.
