Barry, thanks for sharing.  I wish I could have seen the Indian Leg wrestling match, from what I've read Gene held the title for quite some time.  Care to share who won?  :)  

Little stories like that will rarely if never be found in magazines, so for those of you who care to share them, my sincerest thanks.

Morning Tim,

I'd like a copy of both articles as well and thanks for doing this.

Although he doesn't do it any longer, Gene was never beaten in his life to my knowledge at Indian leg wrestling. Seems like one time the Federation of Wild Sheep had some matches in California to raise money during their convention. If I remember right little brother won it and generated over $12,000. towards the wild sheep foundation. I also remember him leg wrestling Chicago Cubs pitcher and Cy Young Award winner Rick Sutcliffe... all 6'8" of him.. one night in a deer camp. When Gene rolled him the first time ole Sutcliffe almost went through the wall. He claimed Gene caught him off guard.  In the rematch Gene hit him so hard he rolled poor Rick right into a flaming fireplace. Regarding the match with Schaf, Gene rolled Paul twice in a row. Being a high school and college wrestler who had never been pinned in his life, Schaf didn't take too well to losing any kind of wrestling match, even if it was Indian leg wrestling. Thus, the busted arm on my Lazy Boy recliner when Schaf started to throw little brother around my living room to remind him just who the alpha-male really was. Great memories. BW

Awesome BW, being a wrestler myself I can relate to the frustration he must've felt.  Thanks.  Tim
