RIP Danny Hodge

[OAMC99]

The wrestling world lost a true legend yesterday. I met him at the 2006 NCAA tournament and he couldn't have been nicer.

How old was he? He seemed 100 like 15 years ago. Remember him sitting ringside at Perry wrestling dual.

Flow article I think said he was 88 years old.

88 years!

One of true romances of Wrestling is how nice and genuine the legends are. Hatta, Uetake, Smith men, Hodge and every single other legend I’ve met had these qualities.

Hodge is just another reason and example of why this sport is the best!
