Toast Collingwood are everywhere

Thought I'd come up to the Gold Coast this weekend and pay homage to the place of Beam's formative years. I ran the Gold Coast half marathon.

Pop Quiz:

How many GC supporters do you think I saw evidence of? Yep, you're correct, zip.

And Collingwood? Well, there was the bloke running in the striped guernsey, the sign that said "Go Dad, do it for the Pies" and a kid wearing the hallowed baggy black and white cap. Three.

We really are everywhere - great to see.

We also had a Magpie supporter at WWE's Wrestlemania 28 this year:

He's apparently an amateur wrestler in Australia, or something like that.

Really? That's interesting. I was hoping he posted on BigFooty and we could hear from him after he got back from Wrestlemania, but no sign of him on here. Anyone know his name?

Does anybody else remember the wrestler that has made those motivational speech videos in the ring for Collingwood the last two Grand Finals. He posted them on YouTube, but I can't find them. Maybe it was that guy?

Yes! That's him, Trikki D! I remember his face from the video. I can't find those pump-up videos though. They were classic!

Someone should tell him to join BigFooty!
