So, I work at a newspaper, and we once had these two
young men
working in our mailroom - each about 6'3 and around 350
lbs.
apiece. They loved talking about pro wrestling. It
occurred to
me that they could be a tag team - the Paper Boys!
They'd come on dressed in classic "newsie" outfits
- the
knickers, the snap-brim caps, the whole bit. They'd have
carriers' bags, and toss copies of their "newspaper" (a
promo
piece for future matches, of course) out to
the
fans... but of course they'd keep the one with the steel
pipe
in the bag for use in emergencies...! Their finishers
would have names like "The Headliner," "The Free
Press," and "The Final Edition".. and in their off hours they could promote literacy!
