Default Any WWE fans here?

I just tried getting ring side tickets for WrestleMania here in Chicago and tickets were 5k each. I love my nephew, but there's noway I'm spending that kinda money for fake wrestling. What would you guys do?

If you care about him, spend the time and money teaching him to like real sports. You don't want him ending up like every spectator you see at a WWE event.

Why dont you and BigBoy just have a few drinks and then go at each other in the living room. Your nephew would like that and you and Dan could split the savings.

Possibly be a more authentic set-to as well.

Just use common sense and tell him who will win the matches before they happen. Then, he will lose interest and move onto skateboarding and grow his hair long like the rest of em.

Five grand for seats to wrestling?! Are you friggin' kidding me?! Put that 5K in a college fund for the little porch monkey and even though he won't understand it now, he will later on.

I couldn't believe the cost either, so I ended up getting some crappy seats in the nose bleeds. The upper section of the All-State has really small seats, so my fat ass is gonna be real unconfortable the entire time, lol. Just a side note, I am already teaching the kid the ins and outs of the gambling world.

See, I knew you'd find a better way to spend that 5K

The kid likes nothing but chalk. I'm trying to teach him about the doggies, but he won't listen. It's still a work in process.
