Captain Lou Albano 1933-2009

I know this happened last week, but just in case anyone missed it.
Captain Lou died of natural causes on October 14. He was placed under the care of Hospice a week before passing away. He was 76 years old.

Rest in Peace, Capt. Lou.

As I remember him he looked 76 when he did the video with Cindy Lauper.

Professional wrestling is a hard life. Their bodies break down very quickly.

He was a legend. One of my favorite wrestling personalities from the 80's when wrestling was it's best.

He will be missed. I remember him best as Super Mario from the show I used to watch as a kid:

That's all my son knows about him. He's got a couple of episodes on DVD.
