Beauregarde, (off-stage name Larry Pitchford,〔(Online World of Wrestling profile )〕 born c. early 1940s)〔(Zeno Records bio ), says he was in college in 1963〕 is a former pro wrestler and musician from Portland, Oregon in the United States. ==Career== His wrestling career began in 1963 and by 1970 he had become one of the biggest names on the Pacific Northwest Wrestling circuit. He was renowned for his unique wrestling moves (and finishing move ''The Thumb'') and crazy on-stage characters he created for himself. On match days he would find a historic figure whose date of birth fell on that day and pretend to be them during the match and in interviews.〔(Records by Mail archive: "Beauregarde - Beautiful Beau" )〕 In 1971, he released an album bearing his stage name, "Beauregarde" featuring Greg Sage of the Wipers on guitar. Beauregarde enlisted Sage (then 17) after overhearing him playing guitar for a friend's band at Sound Productions studio in Portland.〔 In 1973, he managed the tag team of Brute Bernard and Jay York in Jim Crockett's "Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling" promotion. After retiring from wrestling, he bought a sheet-rock company in Florida where he lives and spends most of his time fishing.〔(Wrestling Revue magazine, September 1968: Beauregarde article )〕 On February 4, 2006, Beauregarde made his first wrestling related appearance in many, many years at HCW's Incredible 8 Tournament in South Florida. There, promoter Nick Mayberry presented him with an HCW Award, along with wrestlers Rusty Brooks, Stephen "Big Daddy" DiBlasio, and "Outlaw" JR James. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Beauregarde」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
