I grew up with Dave's son. It was amazing to see all those wrestlers pull up to Dave's house in their Cadillac's for a Sunday BBQ....They were huge to a small kid.
Story:
When I was a kid my dad would get his haircut at the local barbershop and it was the same as Ruhl.
One day me and a few friends were inside the shop and Ruhl was in the chair.
We were asking what he was going to do to Sweet Daddy Seekie on Friday night?
Ruhl leaned over on one hip and pulled out several 3 1/2" spikes from his front pocket and it looked like he was bending one in half and gave each of us, a bent nail. He said "I am going to do this to Sweet Daddy."
I was in total awww. I went home and I could hardly bend one over in the bench vise with a hammer.
Later in my years after realizing what rastlin entertainment was, dad told me that Ruhl carried those already bent spikes in his pocket to give and impress the kids....
Hahahaha
