Living the dream (as a luchador)

super-cameron · 07-17-2008, 02:11 PM

So we had a family night at the local Rookie League baseball field Sunday. My buddy and I decided to show up in our luchador costumes.

Then, right before we were going to go onto the field for a "dizzy bat race", the heavens opened up and the rain came. So, what else could we do? We ran out to help the grounds crew cover the field. Look for the bright colored idiots pulling the far side of the tarp:

Heh, nice. Seeing those photos rekindles my desire to play a game of paintball in either a Batman or Superman costume, complete with cape and matching mask.

What's a "luchador"?

Is that like a Mighty Morphin' Power Ranger?

That's awesome! The look on that little blonde girl's face is priceless...she's like "WTF?!?"

Mexican wrestler.

Specifically Mexican wrestlers with masks.

Now I have to do the obligatory wikipedia search.

Okay... funny and yet such a coincidence..........

My alter ego at paintball events is "Hector Von Wilhelm" AKA "El Gringo Loco!" The worlds only germ-mexican wrestler...

I had a custom mask made and everything... So far I dressed up as him at Stalingrad at skirmish... I was almost thrown out of my hotel that event for coming to the breakfast area rocking the mask and freaking out the non-paintball people...

I also brought the mask to Spring Castle but I never did anything with it I was too busy... though we did put my father in the mask back at the hotel room.

And the latest stunt was at Big Game LI 2k8... where I ran up and down the traffic line of cars until I took a header on my own gear bag and cut open my elbow

Your not alone!

Back story with the picture.... My team mate from 7 Deadly Lemons lost a bunch of pods at the indoor one day.. I picked them up while cleaning. I created another PBN account "Hector Von Wilhelm" and posted up in the team thread " I GOTS YOUR POD! "

Hilarity insued and at the next event that I saw him.. I walked out of my buddies car with the pod and went.. " I CHALLENGE YOU TO A GERMEXICAN WRESTLING MATCH FOR THE POD! "

Fun fun fun.. mexican wrestling never gets old..
