0:00.0	Hey, hey, it's Conrad Thompson and you're listening to grilling JR with good old JR Jim Ross
0:27.8	himself. Jim what's going on man? How are you? I'm real worthy. I'm real worthy. I'm good man. I'm good. I'm
0:34.5	enjoying my outdoor kitchen. We finally got the rain to move through here in the
0:38.8	our little state and it's nice to be outside. Let's talk about why we're here. It's in your house
0:46.2	eight. Beware of dog and I know you're thinking what in the world? Yeah that went down on May 26, 1996
0:54.1	at the Florence Civic Center. Of course it's in Florence, South Carolina. But what's interesting
0:58.9	about this is I think it's maybe one of the craziest pay per views in wrestling history. It's famous
1:05.3	for the time that the power went out to the building. So we're going to talk about the craziness that
1:10.1	happened that night in Florence, but we're also going to talk about the news and notes happening

1:42.8	concept that I wasn't overwhelmed with it. I was a little underwhelmed. And then I started doing
1:50.5	my little dev of research on that weekend and those subsequent days thereafter. And I thought,
1:57.1	well, you know, this might be pretty interesting. Then when I got your notes from your crack staff,
2:03.3	I got much more excited about it. I read the notes twice last night and got, okay, this is
2:10.0	a hell of a good idea. So I think we're going to have a great show. But at the very beginning,
2:14.6	I was a little underwhelmed because I think at the end of the day, that whole experience there
2:19.5	in the Carolinas was a little bit underwhelming, which is very unusual to say that about a wrestling
2:24.9	event in the Carolinas. Yeah, I mean, in the Carolinas fans showed up. The building set for 9400,
