At least that's what I was told in the 3rd grade by Mario Avigone. He even had a shirt that said: "MARCH 10 IS MARIO DAY" And I said to him, "Why is March 10 Mario Day?" I stood there in silence. Never had I heard something so clever in my 9 years of age! I knew that one day I'd get to run a wrestling promotion and abuse my creative powers by naming an ENTIRE show after what some kid told me in the 3rd grade. He made it out like it was this "Mecca for Mario's." Maybe one day I'll crash a "Mario Day Banquet." At any rate, March 10 IS Mario Day. ...And Mario Avigone has NO ####ING IDEA that there was a moderately attended independent wrestling show named after his "special day." Link: Revenge of the Sith
To which he replied--"Well, if you abbreviate March, you get "MAR" and if you put the 10 next to the MAR, you get MAR1O Day."
He told me about this fantastic dinner and all these people (Mario's, that is) hangin' out. And I realized that this was something I would never be allowed to go to.
