Leader Board Ad

In these waning days of the winter doldrums I have been listening to REM and relaxing to the song “Man on the Moon. I ” It wasn’t until I listened to the lyrics and wondered the significance of the line “Mr Freddie Blassie and the Breakfast mess...” It was around the same time I was pulling this gem from one of my unsorted piles of found paper. I don’t know who the future champ “Kyle” is, but I wish I did. Classy Freddy Blassie went from top wrestler to top manager of Hulk Hogan and others. I remember Andy Kaufman’s obsession with wrestling and watched some of the spoof film he made called “My Breakfast with Blassie.” It was a Mess indeed, mainly ultra dull on purpose as a jab maybe at the film “My dinner with Andre” with Wallace Shawn. Andy and Freddy have a lot of questions to answer, I guess we’ll see them heaven if we make the list, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.... #found #autograph #freddyblassie #andykaufman #foundpaper #REM #movies #obscure #estatesale #urbanarcheology
