[1990-02-10-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler Loves Wrestling Fans

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Lawler does his weekly insult of fans. He tells one "You just set sex back 100 years!" The crowd is eating these insults up, and they're practically begging Lawler to come to them.

"Have you ever been to the Memphis Zoo? ... No, I meant as a visitor." Pretty sure my grandfather used that one on me when I was that kid's age.

The last lady seemed a bit uncomfortable but the rest of the fans seemed to really enjoy being part of the show.

I could watch this all day and I love the dynamic for the Memphis studio crowd.

[Cox]

Does it make me a bad person that I want to see Lawler get real heat out of these segments? Seems like every fan wants to be insulted by Lawler.

[Laney]

I love these segments with Lawler. The zoo line was tops for me from this one. I laugh throughout all of these and the crowd seems to be having a great time too.

[JerryvonKramer]

Fun for all the family with Jerry Lawler. You know that that kid got some milage out of that zoo gag in school for the next month or two.

Again, the fans eat up the King's insults with a spoon. Dave tries to do the apologetic announcer bit, but can't quite pull it off under the circumstances. Jerry's trying, but his subjects just won't boo him. Try this in Dallas and he'd need a police escort to get out of the building!

Another stroll around the studio! The person he says set sex back 100 years may or may not have been a child. "Hey Dave where do you get these people?" is such a great line.

After a King Cobra win, Jerry Lawler takes another walk into the audience as he wants to take a look at the kind of people they get in on a Saturday Morning. He asks a woman to stand up and says ‘that face and that outfit set sex back 100 years, before finding another woman and asking ‘if she needs a license to be that ugly!’ This doesn’t appear to be having the desired effect as both the woman and the crowd all laugh at that. He asks a young kid if he’s ever been to Memphis Zoo. When he responds ‘yeah’, Lawler says he meant as a visitor! The King liked that one! He picks on one final woman as he’s making his way to the back and says that he wish he could look that good in cheap clothes and wonders if she got her hair cut at a pet shop? Dave Brown is trying his hardest to keep a straight face by the time Lawler has finished and returns to the announcing desk.
