[edit] His bar & grill in Point Roberts, Washington

I don't think it's "The Breakers", but it's one of the two big ones down there, and still his hangout. I'll re-read the article to see where it would fit, and also to see if any mention is made of his support of collegiate/amateur wrestling - he was a major donor to the SFU wrestling club when his son Nick was on scholarship there; much to the chagrin of the coach, but a buck's a buck... ;-).Skookum1 21:56, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The original Mean Gene

Mean Gene currently redirects to Gene Okerlund, but AFAIK it was Kiniski who was the original Mean Gene. I'll post a simialr query on Okerlund's page, where IMO there should be a ref to Kiniski's previous use of the nickname before Okerlund used it.Skookum1 21:57, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
