The annual White House Easter Egg Roll is just about here and this year's will feature
something a little different.
In addition to the commemorative Easter eggs that will be available for purchase, there
will be eggs on display made by children across the United States.
There are a few, in particular, that people are buzzing about.
According to KRQE, students at the Arts Academy at Bella Vista in Clovis, New Mexico, put
together a design that will be shown at the 2018 White House Easter Egg Roll.
The design features mountains, hot air balloons, White Sands and a Zia symbol - featured on
the flag of New Mexico.
Another design, this one chosen by the Nebraska Department of Education, was created by students
at Dorchester public schools.
The design features Nebraska's state emblems.
What is the White House Easter Egg Roll?.
According to the White House website, the White House Easter Egg Roll is an American
tradition that dates back to 1878, or earlier.
It's traditionally planned by the First Lady, allowing her to incorporate her taste.
First Lady Melania Trump is responsible for the egg rolling races people have come to
expect at the White House Easter Egg Roll.
The event features games, an appearance from the President, First Lady and other members
of the family, an Easter bunny sighting and more.
It's customary to receive a wooden Easter egg upon leaving the event.
It's been done since 1981 and has become something people look forward to.
This year's White House Easter Egg Roll is the 140th.
White House Easter Egg Roll history.
While some believe it was started by President Rutherford B. Hayes, others say it began as
an informal celebration hosted by Abraham Lincoln.
Egg rolling on the United States Capitol's grounds became so popular in the 1870s that
while he was president, Ulysses S. Grant banned it.
He cited landscaping concerns as his reasoning.
In 1878 President Hayes changed that, after being approached by a group of children who
hoped to play egg-rolling games at the White House.
He told his guards to let the children in and, since then, Easter Monday at the White
House has been a tradition.
President Benjamin Harris introduced music to the White House Easter Egg Roll in 1889,
inviting the United States Marine Band to play during the celebration.
As the years went by, the White House Easter Egg Roll grew bigger and bigger.
It was around that time that it was decided the number of guests invited had to be limited.
The White House Easter Egg Roll did not occur from 1917 to 1920 or from 1943 to 1945 because
of World War I and World War II.
It didn't happen from 1946 to 1952 either because of food conservation and construction
on the White House.
When is the White House Easter Egg Roll 2018?.
This year's White House Easter Egg Roll will be held on Monday, April 2, 2018.
Donald Trump and Melania Trump will host the event upon returning to Washington, D.C.,
from Mar-A-Lago in Florida.
Each year, the Easter Bunny makes an appearance at the White House Easter Egg Roll.
In 2017, former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer revealed that before landing that
gig, he was assigned to be the Easter Bunny at the event according to CNN.
Twitter took this tidbit and ran with it, throwing together hilarious memes about Spicer's
past as the beloved bunny.
It was even spoofed on Saturday Night Live by Melissa McCarthy, who famously portrayed
Spicer on the show.
It's unclear who's been tasked with filling his bunny suit following his resignation from
the White House.

How to Create Marbled Easter Eggs | Sophie's World - Duration: 6:07.
hi I'm Sophie and welcome to my world well with Easter right around the corner
I thought it'd be fun to do a new egg dyeing technique and this is an awesome
one it uses shaving cream hard-boiled eggs and food coloring and you end up
with this totally cool swirly whirly tie-dyed egg so I'm gonna teach you how
to make one right now for this project you're going to need
shaving cream neon or regular food coloring plastic spoon hard-boiled eggs
a plate or pan or tray that has a lip paper towels and a safe work surface
gloves are optional first thing we're gonna do is you're gonna make sure that
you have your hard-boiled eggs ready to go and if you don't know how to make
hard-boiled eggs there's a link down below that shows you how to do it I'm
gonna be using this as my work surface but this is the perfect tray if you were
gonna do a lot of eggs but since I'm only gonna be doing one or two right now
I'm gonna just use this little plate here that has a nice lip and
that's got a that's got a lip that gives us about an inch and a half which is
what you want and here you can see you can use a cookie sheet or you can use a
tray like this one if you're gonna do a lot of these so make sure you have your
hard-boiled eggs already done mine are done right here
and put those off to the side here and shake up your shaving cream and put the
shaving cream in your plate then use your spoon to spread it all around now I
have been told that you can do this with cool whip but I've never tried it it
seems a little sticky and sweet to me so spread out your shaving cream so it's
nice and smooth kind of like a whipped cream pie there
and then you're going to take your neon food coloring now I want to show you
something this is using neon food coloring and
this is using regular food coloring so you can see the difference between the
two the neon is a lot more vibrant you're just gonna take your
drops of food coloring and just kind of drop them willy-nilly on your shaving
cream this is the fun part now take your spoon and gently swoosh it up and down
and kind of mix those colors together so you're making kind of these really neat
patterns and shapes very tie-dye or marbleized
then once you've got it to a point that you like take your hard-boiled egg and
this is where you might want to have gloves and as you can see I've been
using it without gloves and you'll see what happens to my fingers just roll
your egg and make sure you coat it on all sides and then place it on paper
towel and you can roll a bunch of eggs
and just lay them down and lay it down now we're going to let those rest for
like thirty minutes so I actually have some that I did earlier these have been
resting actually more than 30 minutes but you're going to then place them
under the tap so you turn your kitchen faucet on and place them underneath it
and let the water run on them but because I can't do that right now I'm
just going to put them into a little water bath right here and you can see
all that shaving cream comes off and you're left with this really cool
tie-dyed egg isn't that neat I'll show you another one and they all
look different that's what's really cool about it
depending on what colors they picked up like that one has a little yellow you
can see the swirly effect now once you're done with your shaving cream and
you got that lid you can do something really cute which is make a little
basket and then you can put your little egg in put my dry one in there you have
it your tie-dyed Easter eggs and listen when you're all done with that shaving
cream you can turn the top into a little Easter basket
all I did was take my top add some cute little washi tape around there glue two
ribbon on inside and added some stickers from Easter and you make a cute little
basket out of the top for more great ideas for recycled and for Easter check

TOP 15 Classic Wrestler Appearances On TV You Totally Forgot About - [Facts Wrack] - Duration: 19:27.
15.
GOLDBERG ON THE GOLDBERGS.
BEING THE MOST RECENT ENTRY ON THIS LIST, CHANCES ARE ANYONE WHO SAW FORMER WCW AND
WWE WORLD CHAMPION BILL GOLDBERG APPEAR ON THE GOLDBERGS REMEMBERS IT WELL.
FUNNY AS THE SHOW AND THE MAN'S ROLE ON IT ARE, THOUGH, IT'S ONLY A MODERATE HIT
IN THE RATINGS, SO IT'S TOTALLY POSSIBLE A GOOD PORTION OF THE WRESTLING AUDIENCE DIDN'T
EVEN KNOW IT HAPPENED.
FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW, THE GOLDBERGS DOESN'T ACTUALLY HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH
THE WRESTLER, WHO SIMPLY SHARES HIS LAST NAME WITH THE CENTRAL CHARACTERS.
EVEN SO, GOLDBERG CLAIMED IT WAS A NATURAL FIT FROM THE DAY HE WALKED ONTO THE SET, A
CONNECTION THAT CAME ACROSS ON CAMERA.
HIS CHARACTER WASN'T ACTUALLY A GOLDBERG, BUT RATHER THE BROTHER OF ADAM AND BARRY'S
HIGH SCHOOL GYM TEACHER, COACH MELLOR.
COACHING APPARENTLY RAN IN THE FAMILY, LEADING TO A SIBLING RIVALRY THAT BEVERLY'S YENTA
TENDENCIES NATURALLY FELT THE NEED TO FIX.
THUS FAR, GOLDBERG HAS APPEARED ON THE GOLDBERGS TWICE, WITH MORE POTENTIAL GUEST ROLES RUMORED
FOR THE FUTURE.
14.
THE ROCK, TRIPLE H, BIG SHOW, AND MICK FOLEY ON SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE.
IN MAY OF 2017, THE ROCK MADE HISTORY YET AGAIN BY BECOMING THE FIRST WRESTLER, AND
ATHLETE IN GENERAL, TO BECOME A MEMBER OF SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE'S HERALDED FIVE-TIMERS
CLUB.
IF IT ISN'T OBVIOUS, THIS MEANS HE SERVED AS THE HOST AT LEAST FIVE TIMES, BUT TO MANY
FANS OF COMEDY AND THE GREAT ONE, HIS FIRST APPEARANCE WAS DEFINITELY THE BEST.
IT'S NOT JUST THE FACT THE BIG SHOW, MICK FOLEY, AND THEN-WWE CHAMPION TRIPLE H ALSO
APPEARED EITHER, ALTHOUGH THE HANDFUL OF SKETCHES WHERE THEY ALL INTERACTED WERE TRUE HIGHLIGHTS
— ESPECIALLY THE INCREDIBLE NICOTREL ADVERTISEMENT.
IN MANY RESPECTS, THE ROCK'S FIRST SNL HOSTING GIG WAS HIS COMING OUT PARTY AS AN ACTOR AND
ENTERTAINER, PROVING HE WAS FAR MORE THAN JUST A MERE WRESTLER.
SHORTLY THEREAFTER, HIS MOVIE ROLES STARTED GETTING EXTREMELY SUCCESSFUL, LEADING TO HIS
NEXT FOUR ROLES GETTING CREDITED AS DWAYNE JOHNSON.
UNFORTUNATELY, SOME OF THESE LATER GIGS TRIED TO MASK HIS WRESTLING PAST, MAKING PEOPLE
FORGET ABOUT HOW HILARIOUS HE COULD BE WHEN DIGGING INTO IT INSTEAD.
13.
BRET HART ON THE SIMPSONS.
ARGUABLY THE GREATEST CONTRIBUTION TO ENTERTAINMENT CREATED IN AMERICA, JUST ABOUT EVERYONE ON
EARTH IS WELL AWARE OF THE SIMPSONS.
THE HILARIOUS YELLOW FAMILY AND THEIR IMMENSE WORLD CALLED SPRINGFIELD HAVE BEEN ON OUR
TV SCREENS FOR OVER 30 YEARS, AND THERE'S STILL NO END IN SIGHT TO THE HIJINKS THEY'LL
GET UP TO.
THERE ARE AT LEAST TWO DOWNSIDES TO HAVING BEEN AROUND FOREVER, THOUGH.
FOR ONE, ALL SIMPSONS FANS ARE WELL AWARE THE SHOW HAS DECLINED IN QUALITY OVER THE
YEARS.
SECONDLY, WITH OVER 600 EPISODES, IT'S EASY TO FORGET MINOR DETAILS LIKE THE TWO SCENES
IN "THE OLD MAN AND THE LISA" GUEST STARRING BRET HART.
THE EPISODE DETAILS MR. BURNS LOSING HIS VAST FORTUNE, INCLUDING HIS MANSION, WHICH THE
HITMAN DECIDES TO PURCHASE AFTER LEARNING IT'S NEXT DOOR TO HIS FICTIONAL RIVAL, THE
SHRIEKING SHEIK.
EVEN THOSE WHO REMEMBER THE APPEARANCE WELL MIGHT QUESTION IF IT WAS ACTUALLY HART IN
THE ROLE, AS HE STRANGELY MASKED HIS VOICE, BUT WE CAN CONFIRM IT WAS REALLY HIM.
12.
JOHN CENA ON PSYCH.
IN SOME RESPECTS, THE THEME SONG TO PSYCH SOUNDS A LITTLE BIT LIKE A DESCRIPTION OF
KAYFABE — "I KNOW YOU KNOW THAT I'M NOT TELLING THE TRUTH."
THROW IN THE FACT THAT PSYCH, LIKE RAW AND SMACKDOWN, HAPPENS TO AIR ON THE USA NETWORK,
AND PERHAPS IT WAS INEVITABLE MAIN CHARACTERS SHAWN AND GUS WOULD BE OPEN AND PROUD WWE
SUPER FANS.
FOR THIS REASON, THEY MUST HAVE BEEN OVERJOYED TO INTERACT NOT ONLY WITH JOHN CENA, BUT ALSO
MICKIE JAMES, STACY KEIBLER, THE MIZ, THE BIG SHOW, AND BOTH BELLA TWINS, ALL IN VARIOUS
EPISODES.
OF COURSE, NONE OF THESE SUPERSTARS WERE ACTING AS THEMSELVES, ALWAYS ABLE TO ADAPT INTO MEMORABLE
CHARACTERS WHILE PLAYING ALONG WITH SHAWN'S FAKE PSYCHIC ABILITIES.
CENA'S EPISODE IS PROBABLY THE MOST MEMORABLE, NOT ONLY FOR HIS STAR POWER, BUT ALSO THE
SHOCKING TURN THAT HE WAS THE EPISODE'S SECRET VILLAIN ALL ALONG.
PSYCH NEVER QUITE GOT THE CREDIT IT DESERVED, SO NOW THAT IT'S OVER AND USA HAS NO REASON
TO PROMOTE IT ANYMORE, WRESTLING FANS MIGHT FORGET ABOUT ALL THE GREAT REFERENCES IT CONTAINED.
11.
KANE ON SMALLVILLE.
THROUGHOUT HIS 20-YEAR CAREER AS THE DEVIL'S FAVORITE DEMON, KANE HAS WRESTLED JUST ABOUT
EVERY SINGLE WRESTLER TO COMPETE FOR WWE.
APPARENTLY, THIS EVEN INCLUDES SUPERMAN, ALTHOUGH THIS PARTICULAR MATCH WASN'T INSPIRED BY
VINCE MCMAHON'S FEVER DREAMS.
IF IT WERE UP TO VINCE, THE BIG RED MACHINE WOULD PROBABLY SQUARE OFF AGAINST THE MAN
OF STEEL HIMSELF, BUT UNFORTUNATELY, SMALLVILLE'S WRITERS AND PRODUCERS DECIDED HE WAS BETTER
SUITED TO PLAY A VILLAINOUS ALIEN MONSTER FROM THE PHANTOM ZONE NAMED TITAN.
VINCE AT LEAST WOULD HAVE BEEN PROUD THAT TITAN WAS A DESTRUCTIVE MONSTER SIMILAR TO
KANE'S STATUS IN WWE, BEATING MANY HUMANS TO A BLOODY PULP BEFORE SUPERMAN FINALLY SAVED
THE DAY.
IN FACT, REPLACE SUPERMAN WITH JOHN CENA, AND THE WHOLE THING MAY AS WELL TAKE PLACE
IN A WWE RING.
ALL THIS MEANS IS THAT EVEN THOSE WHO DON'T MUCH CARE FOR THE SUPERHERO GENRE MIGHT ENJOY
THE EPISODE IF THEY DO ENJOY WRESTLING.
10.
ROB VAN DAM ON CITY GUYS.
DESPITE AIRING ON NBC'S SATURDAY MORNING SCHEDULE FOR FIVE YEARS, CITY GUYS ISN'T
QUITE AS FONDLY REMEMBERED TODAY AS OTHER SHOWS LIKE SAVED BY THE BELL, WHICH IT WAS
PARTIALLY MODELED AFTER.
THIS MIGHT BE DUE TO THE SHOW'S UNIQUE FOCUS ON URBAN SENSIBILITIES, REJECTING MAINSTREAM
TRENDS FOR MORE ALTERNATIVE CONCEPTS, WHICH MAY NOT HAVE RESONATED WITH ITS YOUNG AUDIENCE.
FOR EXAMPLE, RATHER THAN HIRE A WWE SUPERSTAR TO GUEST STAR ON AN EPISODE ABOUT LEAD CHARACTER
EL-TRAIN'S DREAMS OF BECOMING A WRESTLER, THEY WENT WITH THEN-ECW TELEVISION CHAMPION
ROB VAN DAM.
AFTER A FEW SHORT SPARRING SESSIONS, EL-TRAIN IS COMPETENT ENOUGH IN THE RING TO SAVE RVD
FROM AN ATTACKING TAG TEAM.
UNFORTUNATELY, ALTHOUGH RVD THINKS EL-TRAIN HAD WHAT IT TOOK TO BECOME A STAR, HE REALIZED
HE WAS TOO YOUNG AND FOCUSED ON SCHOOL TO THROW IT ALL AWAY AND STICK IT OUT IN ECW
OR ANY OTHER WRESTLING ORGANIZATION.
GIVEN THERE WAS VIRTUALLY NO CROSSOVER BETWEEN THE SATURDAY MORNING CROWD AND ECW'S BLOODTHIRSTY
FAN BASE, FEW INTERESTED PARTIES EVER EVEN HEARD ABOUT THIS ONE.
9.
STING ON WALKER, TEXAS RANGER.
EVER WONDER WHAT STING WAS UP TO BETWEEN WCW GOING OUT OF BUSINESS AND DECIDING TO MAKE
A COMEBACK FOR TNA?
WELL, IN A WAY, AN ACTING CAREER BOTH IS AND ISN'T THE ANSWER.
SURE, STING, SOMETIMES CREDITED AS STEVE BORDEN, TRIED TO GET HIS FOOTING IN HOLLYWOOD, BUT
MOST OF THE RESULTS TURNED OUT LIKE HIS WEIRD APPEARANCE ON CHUCK NORRIS'S CULT CLASSIC
WALKER, TEXAS RANGER.
PORTRAYING A BIZARRE METH-DEALING BIKER NAMED GRANGUS, STING DIDN'T LOOK ANYTHING LIKE
STING, AND IT WASN'T JUST THE FACT HE UNDERSTANDABLY DECIDED NOT TO WEAR HIS FACE PAINT.
LIKE MOST EPISODES OF WALKER, THE ACTION IS MORE RIDICULOUS AND SILLY THAN IT IS QUALITY
ENTERTAINMENT, BUT FANS OF CONAN O'BRIEN'S WALKER LEVER WILL SURELY FIND THINGS TO APPRECIATE.
FANS OF THE STINGER, ON THE OTHER HAND, MIGHT JUST QUESTION HIS CAREER CHOICES.
8.
KEVIN NASH ON NIKKI.
THOUGH HER CAREER HAS LARGELY STAGNATED TODAY, THERE WAS ACTUALLY A POINT IN THE LATE 1990S
WHEN NIKKI COX FELT LIKE SOMETHING OF A CLASSIC TV "IT GIRL."
IN ADDITION TO STARRING ON THE WB'S HAPPILY EVER AFTER, SHE HAD HIGH-PROFILE GUEST APPEARANCES
ON A HALF DOZEN OTHER SERIES, LEADING TO HER OWN PROGRAM CALLED NIKKI.
STRANGELY, IT WAS GIVING HER ALL THE SPOTLIGHT THAT SLOWLY CAUSED NIKKI'S FAME TO WANE,
WHICH IS WHY MOST WWE FANS PROBABLY DON'T EVEN KNOW ONE OF THE MAIN PLOTLINES ON THE
SHOW FOCUS ON THE FACT HER HUSBAND IS A PROFESSIONAL WRESTLER.
OF COURSE, HE'S NOT A VERY GOOD WRESTLER, AS HE'S REALLY JUST A MERE JOBBER WHO NEVER
APPEARS ON NOTEWORTHY CARDS — EXCEPT ONE FATEFUL NIGHT WHEN HE WRESTLES THE PROMOTION'S
TOP STAR, THE BIG EASY, PORTRAYED BY KEVIN NASH.
IN A RELATIVELY PROGRESSIVE MOVE FOR A WRESTLER AT THE TIME, IT'S EVENTUALLY REVEALED THAT
NASH'S CHARACTER IS GAY, BUT HE HAS TO MASK HIS FEELINGS AND PRETEND HE LOVES WOMEN TO
EARN THE WRESTLING COMMUNITY'S RESPECT.
STILL, THE SHOW'S LOW PROFILE MADE IT EASY FOR THE UNDERLYING MESSAGE TO REACH MANY FANS.
7.
"CLASSY" FREDDIE BLASSIE ON THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW.
TWO FULL DECADES BEFORE HULK HOGAN EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT APPEARING IN HIS FIRST MOVIE, FUTURE
HULKSTER MANAGER AND WWE HALL OF FAMER "CLASSY" FREDDIE BLASSIE POPPED UP ON AN EPISODE OF
THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW.
TO THIS DAY, THE COMEDIC STYLINGS OF ROB AND LAURA PETRIE AND ALL THEIR FRIENDS IS RECOGNIZED
AS SOME OF THE FUNNIEST SITCOMS IN HISTORY, BUT TRUTH BE TOLD, BLASSIE'S GUEST-STARRING
ROLE DIDN'T HAPPEN ON ONE OF THE BEST HALF HOURS.
RATHER THAN FOCUS ON COMEDY, THE MAIN POINT OF HIS EPISODE WAS A GUEST STAR NAMED RANDY
TWIZZLE, SINGER OF A CATCHY ROCK AND ROLL NUMBER CALLED "THE TWIZZLE."
AFTER MULTIPLE SINGING AND DANCING MONTAGES, ROB'S COWORKER SALLY ROGERS CLAIMS SHE'S
DISCOVERED A DANCE CRAZE EVEN BIGGER THAN "THE TWIZZLE" CALLED "THE TWAZZLE,"
BRINGING OUT THE ICONIC CHAMPION WRESTLER TO PERFORM HIS MOVE.
APPARENTLY, "THE TWAZZLE" IS BASICALLY A FIREMAN'S CARRY, WHICH BLASSIE NATURALLY
PERFORMS ON VAN DYKE.
EVEN THOUGH IT WASN'T THAT FUNNY OR MEMORABLE, SEEING A MAJOR WRESTLER ON A SITCOM WAY BACK
IN 1962 WAS NOTABLE IN ITS OWN RIGHT.
6.
THE ROCK ON THAT '70S SHOW.
NOSTALGIA IS HARDLY A NEW CONCEPT, AND BACK IN THE 1990S, THE FOX NETWORK USED IT TO CREATE
A HIT SITCOM BLATANTLY OWING INTO THE CONCEPT, SIMPLY CALLED THAT '70S SHOW.
OF COURSE, NO SHOW CAN SURVIVE ON A THROWBACK SETTING ALONE, WITH THE TERSE RELATIONSHIP
BETWEEN LEAD CHARACTER ERIC FOREMAN AND HIS FATHER RED SERVING AS ONE OF THE MAIN PLOTLINES.
FOR ALL THEIR DIFFERENCES, ONE THING ERIC AND RED ACTUALLY HAVE IN COMMON TURNS OUT
TO BE A SHARED LOVE FOR PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING, THOUGH IT DOES TAKE THE OLD MAN A LITTLE BIT
OF CONVINCING BEFORE REALIZING HE SHARES HIS SON'S INTEREST.
IT'S THE WORK OF THE MOST ELECTRIFYING MAN IN SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT THAT DOES THE TRICK,
THE CATCH BEING THE ROCK PLAYING HIS FATHER, ROCKY JOHNSON, IN HIS APPEARANCE.
WHILE THE GREAT ONE IS OBVIOUSLY THE HIGHLIGHT, HE DIDN'T COME ALONE, AS FELLOW WWE SUPERSTARS
KEN SHAMROCK, THE HARDY BOYZ, AND ERNIE LADD WERE ALL ON BOARD, TOO, AS WAS MARTIAL ARTS
ICON GENE LEBELL.
BRIDGING MULTIPLE GENERATIONS, THIS IS ONE ANY FAN OF '70S, '90S, OR MODERN WRESTLING
COULD ALL ENJOY.
5.
"MACHO MAN" RANDY SAVAGE ON DEXTER'S LABORATORY.
LIKE MANY CARTOON NETWORK CLASSICS, DEXTER'S LABORATORY WAS ACTUALLY SEVERAL SHOWS IN ONE,
AND THE TITULAR BOY GENIUS NEVER ACTUALLY INTERACTS WITH WWE HALL OF FAMER "MACHO
MAN" RANDY SAVAGE IN HIS GUEST APPEARANCE.
PORTRAYING AN INTERGALACTIC WRESTLING CHAMPION NAMED RASSLOR, SAVAGE NONETHELESS DID MANAGE
TO SQUARE OFF WITH JUST ABOUT EVERY OTHER CHARACTER ON THE SHOW, MOST NOTABLY DEXTER'S
PET PRIMATE/SECRET SUPERHERO MONKEY.
RASSLOR'S MODUS OPERANDI IS CHALLENGING EVERY FIGHTER ON A GIVEN PLANET TO A DUEL,
AND IF NONE CAN STAND AGAINST HIM, HE BLOWS THE WHOLE PLACE UP AND MOVES ON TO THE NEXT.
EARTH'S SUPERHEROES ARE NO MATCH TO HIS MACHO MADNESS, BUT THE INDOMITABLE SPIRIT
OF THE LITTLE MONKEY, WHO REFUSES TO GIVE UP AFTER GETTING BEATEN TO A PULP MULTIPLE
TIMES, SLOWLY MAKES HIM REALIZE HUMANITY MIGHT BE WORTH SAVING — EVEN IF WE ARE ALL A BUNCH
OF WEAKLINGS REPRESENTED BY A MONKEY.
IN A WAY, IT'S KIND OF BEAUTIFUL, AND CAN MAKE EVEN A PESSIMIST SHOUT, "OOOOH, YEAH!"
4.
TRIPLE H ON THE DREW CAREY SHOW.
SO BEGINS THE WRESTLING CAREER OF A WWE HALL OF FAMER.
NOW THAT DREW CAREY HAS FOUND HIS PLACE IN POP CULTURE AS THE SECOND HOST OF THE PRICE
IS RIGHT, MOST TV VIEWERS HAVE FORGOTTEN ALL ABOUT THE NINE YEARS HE HAD HIS OWN SITCOM.
THE DREW CAREY SHOW WAS PRETTY TYPICAL OF ITS ERA, BUT STILL MANAGED TO WIN OVER A DECENT
AMOUNT OF FANS THROUGH ITS FLAMBOYANTLY WEIRD SIDE CHARACTERS LIKE OSWALD, LEWIS, AND THE
COLORFULLY PAINTED MIMI.
FOR ONE EPISODE, DREW MADE ANOTHER MEMORABLE ACQUAINTANCE IN FAMED WRESTLER THE DISCIPLINARIAN,
PLAYED BY THEN-WWE INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION TRIPLE H. THE ICONIC BELT ACTUALLY MADE ITS
WAY TO THE PROGRAM ALONG WITH HIM AND IS PICTURED ABOVE AROUND THE WAIST OF DREW'S FRIEND
KATE O'BRIEN.
IN THAT SCENE, THE CHAMP HIMSELF IS PASSED OUT DRUNK ON BUZZ BEER, WHICH HE LATER SPEAKS
OUT AGAINST IN AN ANTI-DRINKING PSA.
LUCKILY FOR BUZZ BEER OWNER DREW, HARDCORE DRINKERS SEE THIS AS AN ENDORSEMENT, WANTING
TO PROVE THEY CAN WITHSTANDING THE BREW THAT KNOCKED OUT THE CHAMP.
TRIPLE H MIGHT WANT PEOPLE FORGETTING ABOUT THIS ONE, BUT THAT ONLY MAKES IT FUNNIER IN
RETROSPECT.
3.
DOZENS OF WCW WRESTLERS ON BAYWATCH.
JUST BECAUSE A GIVEN WRESTLER'S APPEARANCE ON A CERTAIN SHOW DOESN'T MAKE ANY GODDAMN
SENSE WHATSOEVER DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN IT ISN'T STILL AWESOME.
SOMEHOW, WHEN ENOUGH GARBAGE TV MIXES TOGETHER INTO ONE SPECTACULAR EXPLOSION OF WEIRD, THE
RESULTS ARE MUCH MORE ENTERTAINING THAN THE SUM OF ITS PARTS.
IN 1995, THE STAGNANT WCW PRODUCT AND A LITTLE SHOW CALLED BAYWATCH PROVED THIS BY GETTING
TOGETHER TO PROMOTE A DIFFERENT KIND OF BASH AT THE BEACH.
WRESTLING FANS WERE EXTREMELY BORED BY HULK HOGAN'S FEUD AGAINST KEVIN SULLIVAN AND
HIS DUNGEON OF DOOM, BUT FOR WHATEVER REASON, SEEING IT UNFOLD IN FRONT OF A CONFUSED AND
BORED PAMELA ANDERSON MADE IT SOMETHING SPECIAL.
VADER, RIC FLAIR, AND "MACHO MAN" RANDY SAVAGE WERE ALL ON BOARD AS WELL, LIKEWISE
PRODUCING GOLD.
EVEN LESS REMEMBERED IS THE FACT SHAWN MICHAELS ALSO APPEARED ON THE SHOW THE NEXT YEAR.
UNFORTUNATELY, HE PLAYED A COMPLETELY FICTIONAL CHARACTER THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH WRESTLING.
2.
VADER AND JAKE ROBERTS ON BOY MEETS WORLD.
CORY MATTHEWS AND FRIENDS WANDERED THROUGH THIS ROAD THAT WE CALL LIFE IN A MANNER NO
'90S KID COULD EVER FORGET.
ANYONE ALIVE AT THE TIME WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER BOY MEETS WORLD AND ITS CLASSIC MOMENTS, YET
WE COULD EASILY SEE YOUNGER VIEWERS MISSING OUT ON THE FUN, INCLUDING THE MULTIPLE EPISODES
THEY DEDICATED ENTIRELY TO PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING.
BEING TEENAGERS IN THE MID 1990S, IT MADE TOTAL SENSE THAT CORY AND SHAWN WOULD BE BIG
FANS OF WWE, AND THEY REALLY LUCKED OUT IN THAT REGARD AFTER LEARNING THEIR BULLY-TURNED-FRIEND
FRANKIE STECCHINO WAS THE SON OF NONE OTHER THAN BIG VAN VADER.
THE MOST MEMORABLE OF VADER'S SEVERAL EPISODES WAS DEFINITELY THE ONE CENTERED AROUND HIS
BIG MATCH AGAINST JAKE "THE SNAKE" ROBERTS, THE WINNER OF WHICH WOULD GO ON, IN FRANKIE'S
WORDS, "THE WINNER IS IN LINE FOR A SHOT AT THE BELT AGAINST SEAN MICHAELS AT MADISON
SQUARE GARDEN."
WITH FRANKIE, SHAWN, AND CORY'S HILARIOUSLY SIMPLISTIC ADVICE, VADER MANAGES TO WIN THE
BIG ONE, GROWLING HIS WAY INTO OUR CHILDHOODS FOREVER.
1.
"ROWDY" RODDY PIPER ON IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA.
OF ALL THE GREAT PERFORMANCES HIGHLIGHTED ON THIS LIST, THERE'S NO DOUBT IN OUR MINDS
THE GREATEST OF ALL WAS "ROWDY" RODDY PIPER'S TWO-EPISODE STINT AS THE MANIAC
ON IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA.
THE ICONIC WWE HALL OF FAMER HAD ALREADY PROVEN HIMSELF AS A GREAT ACTOR IN THE SCI-FI CLASSIC
THEY LIVE, AND HIS INTERVIEWS GUARANTEED EVERYONE WAS WELL AWARE OF PIPER'S INCREDIBLE COMEDIC
WIT.
STILL, HE COMPLETELY TRANSFORMED INTO A PSYCHOTIC AND VERY LITERAL MANIAC EACH TIME HE HUNG
OUT WITH THE GANG.
QUITE FRANKLY, IT'S HARD TO IMAGINE ANYONE WHO CALLS THEMSELVES A FAN OF ALWAYS SUNNY
OR PIPER EVER FORGETTING THIS ONE, AS LITERALLY EVERYTHING HIS CHARACTER SAYS AND DOES IS
OUTRAGEOUSLY FUNNY.
WHO COULD FORGET HIM NEARLY BREAKING THE PADDY'S PHONE IN A FIT OF RAGE OVER $15, OR THE FACT
HE CARRIES AROUND BARBED WIRE AND BUCKETS OF CHESTNUTS IN HIS CAR?
THAT SAID, IT WAS JUST TOO GOOD FOR US TO LEAVE OFF THE LIST.
ALSO, IT'S GOOD FOR THE SOUL TO TAKE THE TIME AND REMEMBER THE MANIAC LOVES YOU.
