1977 Superstar Billy Graham Mobbed in Times Square

Vintage image of then-Wrestling Champion Superstar Billy Graham of the World Wide Wrestling Federation ( WWWF). Superstar was scheduled to wrestle at Madison Square Garden later in the evening and decided to venture out for a walk in Times Square to clear his head. On 42nd Street (The Deuce) he was unexpectedly mobbed by wrestling fans of all persuasions. As you can see in this image, people from every walk of life are flocking to him. An idol among the masses. RIP Superstar Graham - the heel you couldn’t hate. It’s always a thrill when it’s from Vinnie DeVille!
