Also it is ****.

He asked me to take him to the live event in the 02 in Dublin but I just refused, not even bothering to think on my feet and tell him it was sold out.
I am surprised it's still so popular. I don't like it now. I like the old stuff from when I was a kid.

The only way to enjoy it is to pretend that it's real maybe a have a few drinks. it's such a weird thing, it makes no sense watching some pretend fights in a big ring with bouncy ropes with over the top characters yet they still watch it.
