Help Out Superstar Billy Graham

My name is Billy Graham. I am a former World Wrestling Entertainment Champion. I am an author, an artist, a liver transplant survivor, a diabetic and a victim of catastrophic bone loss do to the disease known as avascular necrosis. My doctor, a world renowned orthopedic surgeon calls this condition, the death of a bone and it is unforgivably painful.

This past Tuesday my wife Valerie and I came to the Phoenix Art Museum to see the Rembrandt exhibit. The greeter at the door mockingly asked me, and I quote, "Where do you think you are going with that chair? “; I said, “This is my wheel chair, and I am going in to see the Rembrandt exhibit”. I then went to the ticket counter, sat on my chair and waited for Valerie to come in and purchase our tickets.

We then started walking toward the exhibit and I was stopped by Heather Paulk, who rudely told me and I quote "You cannot come in with that chair”; I asked why, and she said "your chair is too high and you might fall off of it into a painting”. The security team offered me a wheel chair that they provided and I turned it down because it did not conform to my personal disability needs. After a back and forth discussion Valerie said "So you are not going to let us in?"; the response was "no we are not". Valerie then asked if we could get a refund and they answered yes. As Valerie left to go get the car, I informed the security team that I would be suing the Museum for discrimination.

This was an extremely humiliating, embarrassing and degrading event, making me feel like I was toxic and my presence was going to contaminate their building. I was rejected, then subjected to an enormous amount of cruelty. I am angry and saddened at missing the opportunity of a lifetime to see my favorite Master, Rembrandt. This has been a defining moment in my life. This great institution tried to rob me of my dignity but they have failed. This shameful and traumatic event has caused me to become an activist for the rest of my life, I will now be a defender of the disabled.


News conference/interview opportunity – Tuesday @ 1 P.M. MDT at the NE corner of Central & McDowell (under the Rembrandt banner).

Contact the Phoenix Art Museum at 602-257-1222 or by emailing them @ education@phxart.org. Their website is www.phxart.org.
If you guys have time, as wrestling fans, and just being humans - please do Billy Graham a favor and e-mail these losers to tell them just how low it is to discriminate against someone who is disabled. Despite me not agreeing with many of his choices earlier in his career, Billy has always been available with charities and the like, and is a decent human.

It's not only about this happening to him, but to anyone in general. This is a tasteless act, and was very discriminatory and unnecessary. Anyhow, that's all.

Seriously people. The spelling and grammar checks are there for a reason.

I'm hoping this turns into a real positive for not only him but anyone else who may have undergone this type of treatment

There is nothing wrong with a well written letter.

However, most of the time they aren't well written. They are down the lines of "you cant fuck wit da superstar you motherfuckers. i Hope you die" or whatever.

Exactly.

I just sent to them my point of being unfair to anyone with a disability of any kind, not specifically Billy Graham, though I did mention the amount of charity work that he has done over the years and the fact that he's a great guy and such.

Yet, just like Rob said, most people are like, "Fucking bullshit you cunts, you'r gunna get fucked up since you treat people like shit bitches. Fuk ya'll", and a message like that only takes away from his credibility and further humiliates a situation / person.

Not sure why you assumed that such people would use proper grammar and punctiation, so I fixed it.
