Just saw this on my facebook.

This guy is a member of Nanaimo's city council. I have met him a few times and never knew this.

Merv Unger

I started as a referee in Stu Hart's prairie circuit in the 1960s, working with all the top guys from those days, including Gentleman Gene Kiniski and numerous others. Took over the promotion in Winnipeg in the late 1970s when we had all th...e top guys in the business working the territory out of Minneapolis. I helped Roddy Piper to break into wrestling. I've worked with most of the top guys over the years, the fathers of many of the young wrestlers you see today. Sgt. Slaughter, Rick Martel, Pat Patterson, Mean Gene Okerlund, Vern Gagne, etc.
