HWC Paris Raffle- Win a chance to see Gilman Wrestle!

Question is not if, but how many... unfortunately, this isn't tax deductible so harder sell...
 
I was about to buy 20, but then I remembered my passport expired in 2001, and it would probably take too long to get a new one. Oh well....With the world the way it is now, I am probably better staying home. My wife would probably want me to go to the Looovra and climb the Awful tower and stuff like that anyway.

You can receive an expedited passport in 2 weeks for around $160-$200, otherwise it takes 4-6 weeks for $40-$60 less.

If you were really serious about purchasing 20 tickets, then problem solved. How about you place that order and then call the post office to set up a time to submit the passport application.
 
Key to going to wrestling events like NCAAs and other such places? Remind them how much decent NFL tickets cost for a few hours of football or the good old stand by..."I could be one of those guys spending money paying for $8 beers in strip clubs."
Or just marry someone who likes wrestling. Then no convincing needed.

Yea...just make sure to hit record when he breaks it to her that they are going to spend five fab days in Paris watching wrestling. "But honey...it's Gilman!"

Oh I bet she would love that ;) I've been to Paris before so missing the sights for wrestling is no biggie to me.

oops-didn't realize that extra 0 was there. TWO!
 
... But I thought the point was to get away from the wife for a few hours?

:rolleyes:
My ex-wife loved when I went to strip clubs. when I came home and passed out she would get into my pockets for her cut. later she fessed up that she would then treat for lunch at her work the next day. I'm still laughing about that.
