(Actual Photos) Andre Defeats Hogan For WWF Belt (20 Years Later)

Courtesy of Marcus A. Fine:

Today is the 20th Anniversary of Andre the Giant defeating Hulk Hogan for the WWF Heavyweight Championship.

Date: February 5th, 1988
Venue: Market Square Arena
City: Indianapolis, Indiana

Here are actual photos taken that night by parents. I unfortunately was not in attendance that night.

Hope everyone enjoys.







Note from Ric: I'm not normally one to get all nostalgic, but couldn't help but pass this along, since it involves what, to this day, continues to be the United States' most-watched pro-wrestling match (and I can actually vividly recall my anticiaption).
