You Know You're a Wrestler When....

 

 

Cauliflower isn't a vegetable.

 

You can't wait for Christmas...because you'll get 2 pounds.

 

Shoving cotton in your nose seems normal.

 

You wonder how much hair weighs.

 

The coach asks you to do 50 pushups and you think "that's it?"

 

You see someone bend over and you imagine how easy it would be to put them in a cradle.

 

You won't even take a nap on your back.

 

You won't lock your hands when hugging your boyfriend or girlfriend

 

Your coach tells you "cut him" and a knife doesn't cross your mind.

 

You see someone lying on their back and you feel the urge to slap the ground beside them.

 

Gyms look weird without mats on the floor.

 

You'll know exactly how much weight you will lose when you take off your shoes.

 

You have a black eye but don't remember how it might have happened.

 

Asics, Cliff keen, and Brute are more familiar to you than nike or reebok.

 

You tape your shoe laces before the Prom.

 

You have to go to the bathroom before weigh-ins, and the rest of the team high-fives you because of it.

 

Everytime you go to shake hands with someone, you have to fight off the urge to arm drag them.

 

When you put clothes ON before bed instead of taking them OFF

Just so you know, some of that sticks with you at least into your thirties.  It doesn't matter how much you distance yourself from the sport.  I had to chuckle at the cradle comment.  I've put my girlfriend, and even my dog in a cradle just because.

I can't believe no one mentioned this!  Who has ever put a bathroom scale in the kitchen at Thanksgiving?  Was your favorite Xmas gift ever the movie Vision Quest?  I think everyone in my family has a copy of that movie.

Sort of.  I keep buying it, and it keeps coming up missing.  I'll have to try again.

The best part is that no one returns it, or regifts it!  I turned a copy into my librarian once to have her fix a bad section of VHS tape.  She didn't want to do it until I convinced her it did belong in our K-2 collection of movies  :-X  Seriously, if your riding in the car with a bunch of friends and "Lunatic Fringe" by Red Rider comes on and everyone in the car starts singing, your all wrestlers.  If you hear Madonna's "Crazy For You" and you think of funning in a silver sauna suit, you gotta be a wrestler. 

 

If you have ever gaged the quality of a run by the number of songs you played on your ipod, you gotta be a wrestler.  Actually for me it was a casette tape, Guns-n-Roses, Appetite for Destruction  8)

In my era (late 70's), the movie was "Takedown" starring Lorenzo Lamas. I saw it at a theatre downtown Elkhart and was amazed that there was actually a movie about wrestling. The inspirational songs were "We Will Rock You" and "We Are The Champions"! And if you chewed gum and spit in a cup, you were a wrestler...
