Yesterday, Captain Lou Albano passed away at the age of 76.
A legendary pro-wrestling manager, the man who was in part responsible for the “Rock & Wrestling Connection”, and best known by this generation as the live action version of Super Mario, he will be missed.
So I thought it’d be worth sharing a classic video of his antics as Mario.
In this clip, Cap’n Lou is supposed to be doing a short PSA about kids not doing drugs. Evidently, the world of Pro Wrestling hasn’t left him as he ends his PSA with possibly the most horrifying final line in anti-drug PSA history.
Enjoy!
