This thread reminds me of a few months ago. I had to go with my grandparents to St. Lawrence University because it was my Grandfather's 50th Reunion, and I went to a few of the meals.
At one of them, we started to get to talking about what I like, what I'm doing, etc, and my grandfather blurted out that I like wrestling. Now, to give your a perspective on what I was dealing with here, no one at the table was under 70 and they assumed it was sumo and/or amature. I then had to drop a few names (Hogan and Austin), and my grandfather, who has taken me to every event I've been to (including the Supershow this Monday, as I need a ride and he can sort of get into it) dropped The Undertaker (I swear to you I would think TakerLover is his other bastard grandson) but that was pretty uncomfortable. Not because I was a wrestling fan, but because I was a wrestling fan among a bunch of old people who think what the media thinks of it.
