So they didn&#8217;t call me to tell me it was actually a surprise. I was actually at an event and Mr Brisco was there along with a few other friends from the world of professional wrestling, and I had no idea it was coming. I saw the cameras around, and all of a sudden they approached me, and Gerald let me know that&#8217;d be inducted. Like I said, because it was a full circle thing, it was special. I&#8217;m so much looking forward to it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>On whether he&#8217;d met Dan Gable:<\/b> &#8220;The Summer between my junior and senior year, the tryouts for the US Olympic team were taking place at a high school not far from mine. I grabbed a friend of mine, Greg Hagy, who wrestled 98 pounds for us. Greg and I wanted to go watch, and we packed our workout gear and went out cause there were a lot of people we knew a lot of kids like us going to be spectators but we also brought our gear so if we found a wrestling room we could just go in there and work out unofficially. So we did that, I got all geared up, I was doing takedowns with one of the other kids that was there, and you know, just a half-speed workout working on timing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And from over in the corner I see this guy working out and he was really intense like the rest of us were screwing around we didn&#8217;t have anything else to do so let&#8217;s just work on takedowns. He was intense, clearly not one of us, obviously one of the competitors, and I was watching him out of the corner of my eye, and he looked over at us, and I was about his same size. He looked over at us and pointed at me and said, Hey, come on over. I didn&#8217;t know who he was. I walked over, and he wanted to do a couple takedowns. He wanted me to be his takedown dummy. So I&#8217;m standing there and it was bam, woah, what was that. It was just so fast how he took me down, and he did that a few more times, and he was done with me. I found out later it was Dan Gable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>The George Tragos\/Lou Thesz Hall of Fame Weekend goes down in Waterloo, Iowa at the Dan Gable Wrestling Museum July 17th-July 19th.
