So I think this picture captures why people pay to go see wrestling matches. Each athlete is only standing on one leg, partially supporting the other. People may say this is gross, but seriously, how many other types of athletes can do this type of stuff? When I wrestled back in High School, that’s the only sport I did. I did have a friend though, who did wrestling and football. I remember him saying one time that he liked wrestling more because of the endurance and intelligence it required, where football was going 110% for 10 seconds with a break. So this is why we pay money to see people wrestle. Home you enjoy this months wrestling picture!!

About Jon

I started wrestling my freshman year of high school in 2000 in Northern California. My first match lasted about 16 seconds and ended with me on my back. I am proud to say that my second one lasted a bit longer, but sad to report that it ended the same way. That year was my hardest year. I lost every match except for one. My sophomore year I threw out my back and couldn’t wrestle but I still showed up to practice nearly every day and became the general “mat monkey.” Junior year I was back. This was the year that I suffered most of my injuries. I broke fingers, cracked ribs and dislocated both my shoulders at the same time. It was also the best record I had.
