Game 2 Highlights, Adios Amigo Airsho, and Other Top Stories from Team 600 Last Week

For months, it has been reported that the 2013 Amigo Airsho was in jeopardy. Federal budget cuts caused by the sequestration caused Fort Bliss to cancel their sponsorship at Biggs Army Airfield, home to one of El Paso’s signature 2-day events since 1981.

The Blackhawks will host the Boston Bruins at the United Center on Wednesday night in game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals.  The intriguing match up marks the first time since 1979 when the Montreal Canadians met the New York Rangers in the Finals that 2 of the original six teams will face one another for Lord Stanley’s Cup.

You hear that? That’s the sound of LeBron James ripping down the poster of Tiago Splitter dunking over him in Game 2 of the NBA Finals and stapling up one of his own.

Another MMA fighter is leaving the Octagon in favor of pro wrestlings’ squared circle (and a circular cage, too).  Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson, former UFC Light Heavyweight champion, has signed with TNA Wrestling and Bellator MMA.
