 - Charles Laffere

“Hello darling.
Surprised?
Yes, it's me again.
I have just returned from the island of Chandelier.
What am I doing in town?
Well, I'm glad you asked.
I'm just passing through in search of the ever-elusive Thunderbird. 

I got a job as a public relations man.
Passing out handbills on Austin Street.
Merely an effort to improve my financial situation,
And ward off a case of the D.T.'s  

So farewell, my darling.
Perhaps we'll meet again
On some sin-infested street corner in Houston, Texas” 

ZZ Top, “Heaven, Hell, or Houston"

I never met ZZ Top’s P.R. wino on any of my trips to the Sam Houston Coliseum. Perhaps I should have taken a detour down Austin Street since it does run parallel to Caroline Street, the avenue on which the Houston Wrestling office was located.

Welcome back to the Universal Wrestling Federation section of the award-winning Kayfabe Memories website. I am Charles Laffere and….wait a minute, what’s going on here?… 

“You know I'm moving on in this time machine,
Rollin' on through the night.
Seeing' things like I've never seen
And it's taking me outta sight.

Looking' high and low, don't know where to go,
I got to double back, my friend.
The only way to find, what I left behind
I got to double back again, double back again.” 

ZZ Top, “Doubleback”

Darn, not even one page into it and I’ve already dropped two ZZ Top quotes. As promised last time, we will enter the Kayfabe Memories Wayback Machine and travel to the Sam Houston Coliseum to watch a UWF card from January 23, 1987.

We made our way from the hometown down Farm Road 521. Highway 288 was, at that time, a long stretch of lonesome encompassing lots of former pasture land linking Brazoria and Harris counties. The road was divided by an expansive grass median into two two-lane thoroughfares. You could make a straight trip to the Coliseum driving it.  More...
