Cool to see an AWA show that far south in Illinois. Good card too. Thanks.

I don't have it in front of me right now but as I added this to my Robinson record.book, I noticed Green Bay had a show as well with a tag bout of Nick & Ray vs. Billy and a partner I don't recall offhand.  So much for the "light" schedule perks when this happens!

The poster of this lineup also added that John Paul was most likely Paul Perschman/Buddy Rose.

Interesting to see this AWA event in Dick The Bruiser WWA territory....I know that Bruiser's WWA promoted cards at Lanphier High School in Springfield, IL.

Thanks for this cool lineup from the capitol city in the Land of Lincoln!

I expect that it was Ken and not Jim Dillinger at this point. Chris left in 1972.
