RIP Macho Man Randy Savage

Former White Sox Spring Training invitee and pro wrestling superstar Randy "Macho Man" Savage died after having a heart attack while driving his Jeep Wrangler, in Tampa Bay, Florida. Randy's vehicle leapt over a concrete median, veered into traffic and smashed into a tree head on. Randy died from his injuries.

Not only did Randy have a White Sox connection, but he helped shape pop culture when I was growing up. He will be missed.

Well written. I never met Randy, but I interviewed his brother and father. They were a close family.
Too young.

Great old school memories. One of the legends that I liked in the squared circle, along with Andre the Giant, Rowdy Roddy Piper, and Brutus Beefcake. He even showed up in the first Spider-Man movie. RIP Macho Man.
