Bruno Sammartino dinner event postponed

Baltimore radio station WNST (1570 AM)’s “My Italian Dinner with Bruno Sammartino,” which was scheduled for July 18 at Tall Cedars Hall in Parkville, has been postponed until the fall due to Bruno’s wife undergoing emergency knee replacement surgery earlier this week.

The rescheduled date has not yet been finalized for the event, which will be co-hosted by WNST’s Nestor Aparicio and me.

i heard arnold skaaland , (sounds like skul-land) of white plains, n.y., one of bruno's best friends, couldn't make on that date. that's the real reason the event has been postponed. did bruno beat golden boy buddy rogers for the belt? long live the schmuck though in a wrestling match pete oughta hope he is as good sailor art thomas. anybody remember him? mr. muscles. i remember the first night he appeared. channel 5 on their thursday night wrestling show hosted by vince mcmahon sr. from the uline arena in washington.. i think from 8-11.

GOD bless Bruno, his wife and their family. I'm the author of two books and Bruno is mentioned in both of them. He along with Brooks and Johnny U were my role models. Kevin could you please let Bruno know how much I appreciate the way he always carried himself. It certainly had a very positive effect on me.

hey kevin,
are you going to start doing the ring posts like on 1570? i used to look forward to the show and it hasn't been on in a while.

RESPONSE FROM KE: No plans to do it at this time.
