Wow....harkens back to way back when...before Lou....Chief J Strongbow.

RIP Lou! Thanks for the memories!

Amazing that he lived until 76. I would imagine the average life span of those associated with professional wrestling to be much younger.

RIP Lou

When I was a kid the whole Lou and the Wild Samoans vs. Jimmy Snuka got me into the WWF. Great stuff.

RIP Lou. I used to watch wrestling on late night TV in the early '70's. It was a hoot.

Wow! That's a shame. But as mentioned, he did live a pretty long life.

...Yeah, Lou and the Chief..& others. Had a granddad on father's side that lived in Hartford, originally from Germany...trumpet player and grape/wine grower/squeezer, that really believed that stuff was legitimate. The supermen!..:roll:..Saturday afternoons with wrestling on the tv was like our Monday Night Football...so funny.
