He certainly made an indelible impression on me in my youth. Which is my way of saying he scared the shit out of me. The first I saw of him was a promo they filmed on a beach somewhere and they showed taking a large bite of what certainly looked like a living fish (it was probably close to 40 years ago, so my memory certainly isn't perfect).

He was pretty much done in the ring by then, but I do remember watching some tag team matches with him and Kamala, who were both intimidating AF.

The man had very strong ties to the Bay Area, which are still felt to this day. Glad he got to see his children and nephews and cousins go on to have so much success.
