Bet it was that bastard Rick Flair, always swinging a folding chair when the ref's distracted...

1. "smacks forehead"
More than likely Ole and Arn took the chair to him while Ric had the ref distracted. . .

You mess with Ric Flair.. you mess with the horsemen brother.

2. I thought you meant this Dusty Rhodes
The one who had two pinch-hit homers and seven RBI in the '54 Series.





But it was Hank Thompson who lost some teeth, when Phillies' catcher Andy Seminick threw an elbow at him while rounding third near the end of the '51 season.

:shrug:

3. I'm so old I thought you were talking about this Dusty Rhodes




Dusty Rhodes: Game 1, 1954 World Series

Sept. 29, 1954: It is a surprise when Leo Durocher sends Rhodes up to pinch-hit for Monte Irvin in the bottom of the 10th with the score tied 2-2 and two Giants on base. But Rhodes hits the first pitch off Indians pitcher Bob Lemon just barely over the right-field wall at the Polo Grounds, a limp pop fly that travels all of 270 feet. Willie Mays also makes a nice catch and throw in the 8th inning of that game on a 450-foot Vic Wertz blast -- maybe you've seen the photo.
