Well this sucks. Only last night I was listening to "Captain Lou's History of Music" and thinking how awesome it would be to dress up as him for Halloween next year. :(
R.I.P Captain. :(

I never really saw much of him, he was mostly before my time. But I'm well aware of who he is and what he meant to the wrestling world. R.I.P.

Biggest memory of him would be his time as Mario on the old Super Mario cartoons and not knowing it was him until years later.
Never saw him wrestle as a kid but defiantly remember his WWF years as a manager with the Hawaiian style shirt and managing the Wild Samoans.
Post-wrestling memory would be reading up on the story of how Shane used to call him "Fat Man" and one day Lou finds out he was a "protected" wrestler and managed to upside slap Shane. :lol: at how he got away with though.

I got to meet the guy one time, while I was becoming a manager. He gave me alot of advice on managing, as well as the wrestling business as a whole. You will be missed Captain! RIP :'(
