On This Day 33 Years Ago..

Here is a WWF card from the day I was born.

WWF @ Bangor, ME - Auditorium - May 2, 1979WWF Tag Team Champion Jerry Valiant pinned Tony Altimore at 10:30 after Altimore was distracted by Jimmy Valiant, who had come to ringside
WWF Tag Team Champion Johnny Valiant defeated Dominic DeNucci via count-out at at 12:16
Hussein Arab pinned SD Jones at 11:10 after a kick with his loaded boot
Steve Travis defeated Jimmy Valiant via disqualification at 13:14 when Johnny Valiant interfered
Cowboy Lang & Tiny Thumb defeated Butch Cassidy & Little Tokyo at 14:10
WWF North American Champion Ted Dibiase fought Greg Valentine to a double disqualification at 17:30

I had never entertained the thought of wondering what was happening in wrestling on the day I was born until a few weeks ago. I had been looking through historical records of events to look at the results of the cards I've attended when I noticed that the results went back to 1963. I immediately looked to see whether there was an event on May 2nd 1979. And there was!
