I've just heard about the passing of legendary wrestling personality Captain Lou Albano.  He was 76.

Albano's wrestling career was highlighted as a member of The Sicilians tag team and even included a music single recorded in his honor.  Later on, he became well known for his involvement in the Rock-n-Wrestling Connection and with Cyndi Lauper.

Lou Albano will be missed.  He was the first wrestler I had ever met in person and each time I saw him at a convention or show, he was always a class act.  

Percy "Paul Bearer" Pringle has posted a blog about the news along with a picture of the two of them.  You can check it out here: http://percysposts.blogspot.com/2009/10/captain-lou-albano-rest-in-peace.html
