Author Topic: Knoxville Theater Employee Tom Ferreira Expert Film Handler Posts: 203 From: Conway, NH, USA Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-28-2001 06:30 PM                     This is going to seem like an unusual question, but I've read on a few websites that former WWF manager and wrestler Mr.Fuji(real name Harry Fujiwara)was working at a Knoxville movie theater as an usher/ticket taker. Can anyone confirm or deny this story, because, damn, nothing to keep the peace like having a former wrestler patrolling your auditoriums(plus it would be kind of celebrity-rub cool).  |  IP: Logged Christopher Duvall Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 500 From: Denver, CO Registered: Dec 1999 posted 07-29-2001 02:44 AM                     It is true. I cannot remember the theatre off hand, but he works for Regal as an usher. It was in one of our corporate newsletters with a picture. I will see if I can dig it up sometime. BTW, We have an UNLV footbal player working for us now. He is 6'11" and 300lbs. We use him primarily as an usher and to check ID's at the door of R-rated auditoriums.  |  IP: Logged
