I have always loathed Twitter. I think it is one of the dumbest websites on the internet. I honestly don’t understand why it is one of the most popular sites on the internet. I probably never will. But for this article I will give it credit. If it wasn’t for Twitter, this article probably wouldn’t event exist.

So one night, I randomly decide to log into my Twitter account. I probably hadn’t logged into my account for atleast 2 years. But for some reason, on this random night I decided to log in and give it another chance. One of the few people I happened to follow on Twitter is Chris Jericho. Jericho is one of my top favorite wrestlers of all time. Not only is he one of the most talented wrestlers in the WWE but he is also one of the most talented speakers on the microphone of all time.

It just so happened that the first post to appear my newsfeed(I’m not sure what you call it since Twitter is a Facebook wannna-be) is Jericho promoting his band’s concert in Saint Petersburg. Not only is Jericho a WWE champion, he is also a front man of a metal band(and a NYT best selling author). I knew immediately I had to buy tickets.

The concert was on a Thursday night in downtown Saint Petersburg so it would be no sweat of my back to buy tickets and see what his band was all about.

My roommate and I headed to downtown after work and stood in line to get into the Club Detroit. It blew my mind as show time slowly crept in that not that many people were occupying the bar. But oh well. Maybe we would actually get a chance to meet him and take a picture with the champ!

The opening band was pure metal. I don’t even recall what the name of the band was. They weren’t amazing enough for me to try and remember and frankly I don’t like metal enough to even look it up. They metal~ed it up and even managed to produce a mosh pit that I wanted no part of. The show wasn’t bad by any means but I am not a fan of metal so I can’t write home about it but whatever.

Finally, after the anticpation had set in long enough Jericho’s band finally took the stage. Just like wrestling Jericho knows how to work a crowd and he got the fans pumped to 110%. Unfortunately, as soon as the concert was over he hurried off stage and didn’t speak to anyone. This really sucked but I understand.

My roommate and I noticed a few WWE wrestlers were in attendance and we decided we needed to get pictures with them. Unlike the past, we live in i-Generation times and autographs no longer suffice. Autographs have quickly been replaced by photos with smartphones. So we decided to make our ways to celebreties and get our much needed photos.

Former Intercontinental Champion Drew McIntyre

I noticed former Intercontinental Champion Drew McIntyre sitting akwardly the corner. He was excited to take a picture with us. I could tell they were ready to flea the scene so I tried to quickly aquire a photo with former 3X WWE champion Shamus and left Drew behind. I honestly felt bad because it seemed like he was willing to have a beer with us and shoot the shit. I felt even more bad once I grabbed my picture with Shamus. Shamus ended up being a complete asshole. But what can you expect? He was a ginger celebrity. I will no longer root for him. He gave me basically enough time to take a picture and walk away. Not only that, but he cut my roommate out of the picture.

3X WWE Champion Shamus

Oh well, Shamus is no where near my favorite wrestler anyways.
