I first met Broadway at the filming of Boogie's Ultimate Shoot Interview DVD in Christiansburg, VA. He lit up the room w/his larger than life personality & I had a lot of fun talking to him & just being in his company. Our paths have crossed a few times since, w/our most recent meeting being at Boogie's 50th Anniversary in Wrestling Celebration. It was then that Broadway told me I could put him in one of my comic strips. Thank you for joining the Boogieland fun Broadway! You are already a real life comic book character, so you should fit in nicely here! It's a true honor to have you in the comic. I look forward to seeing you again sometime soon.

Well, I still won't accept the fact that summer is almost over, but I can't deny that football season is now officially here. Yesterday the NFL preseason began & today my son Douglas has his first day of football practice to begin his fourth football season. Interestingly, Rashad Jennings, who played for the Giants in yesterday's NFL game, once played for Forest Black, which was also Douglas' first team. Who knows what the future could hold for our #12! I've posted a picture below of both football stars together from a recent visit by Jennings to his former hometown. Sounds like the BWC Family have a lot more to go against than a tough defense or an explosive offense! We can only hope they come out w/the big W when the battle is over! Be back this Thursday, Aug. 7th to find out in another exciting Boogieland strip! & I have to take a moment to wish a very special Happy Birthday Eve Eve to the Boogieman himself, Jimmy Valiant who turns 70 years old this Wed. Okay, so I know he's a couple years older than 70, but he said he wasn't going to count anymore after hitting that milestone age & so I'll stop counting too! I hope it's the best one yet Boogie! I highly recommend a visit to the real Boogieland in person this Sunday or any Sunday, from 12 noon to 4pm. Admission is free! Click HERE for more info. Thanks for reading! Take care!
