- Deadspin.com has an article up about a wrestling fan meeting former WWE and WCW star Virgil in the New York City subway, where he is now selling his merchandise. From the fan's post on a Markedout.com message board:
"Yesterday I was on my way home from work. I was navigating the subway station just as I usually do, however something was different. Instead of the usual guys selling toys or making balloon dogs, there was The Man, The Myth, The Legend.... He had his usual stack of photos and 2 name placards. I was in such shock I doubled back, just so I could get this video for you guys."
"[W]hen I made the pass the first time I saw him talking to somebody holding their wallet and then the person began laughing and walked away."
Another fan saw Virgil earlier in Grand Central Station and noted that he was asking $20 for photos but was talked down to $5. Twitter user @Stadiuminsider posted this photo of Virgil in the subway:

I'm surprised they couldn't find the guy some kind of job. Hell, put him with Ted's son.

I thought they gave him a return with Ted's son for one night only or some crap? Anyway, he should try and find another job somehow.

He must be pretty strapped for cash. I wonder if he has a family or a day job?
