10 Fun Facts About My Trip To WWE WrestleMania 21
4. Wrong Time Zone RAW
When RAWs in the same city as WrestleMania the night before, it makes sense to go along to the show and continue the party. After attending the previous years' show in New York, I completely forgot the time difference and assumed I needed to be at the show at 7:30pm in time for the show starting live at 8pm.
Earlier in the day, I was watching TV just trying to relax after the crazy WrestleMania weekend and saw on Tivo that RAW was actually going out at 5pm. I laughed with Kenneth, joking about what we would do if wed got the time zones wrong. And then it dawned on us - thats exactly what wed done.
Luckily, Thomas was home and at 4:30pm we jumped into the car, raced through the streets of LA and arrived at the Staples Center minutes before RAW kicked off. We ended up walking into the arena as the pyro was going off to start the show.
Every year since, Ive triple checked what time zone Im in and when RAW is due to start. I can still picture myself running to the car and realising my error, like an absolute tit. Good times.
