Everyone in our job has a Flair story. I was invited to dinner by @ringfox1 & @mel_ringfox last mania just saying they're having dinner with Ric? I showed up in t shirt & jeans. Found out was a high end restaurant, everyone wearing suits & sure enough Ric was Ric Flair #NatureBoy

I love that Road Warrior Animal wore his face paint for the interview; hate that Sting didn’t wear his.#NatureBoy
