Fun Time USA was a colossal arcade/gymnasium in Brooklyn, but the best part about the venue was how many autograph signings they'd have with WWE superstars. Between 1998 and 2002 I got to meet, among others, Chris Jericho, William Regal, Faarooq, Bradshaw, The Big Show, and Kane. It was my meeting with Sable, though, that brings me to this particular confession. I was excited to meet Sable, and what better way to make an impression than with a bouquet of flowers? I bought them that morning and stood in line with them and a poster, waiting patiently for many hundreds of other fans to meet the diva. Finally, I reached Sable and gave her the flowers and the poster. She thanked me, then asked me my name and signed the poster (she didn't write my name). As for the flowers? They were laid gently next to half a dozen other bouquets.
