RIP Roddy Piper - His last appearance

[@AdakStillStands]

Tiny crowd. Big smile. Fitting. R.I.P. Roddy.

[@williamgray1221]

He loved his job so much it doesn't matter the crowd size. Dude would be as happy if there was less than 10. He was a rare gem indeed

[@Zeitgeistmusic997]

Money, you dimwit.

[@joeloresky459]

This was a hell of a show to be involved with. I was the ring announcer for the evening, and a few things about that night. There was about 850-950 there, so for an indy show, not too shabby. Lol Secondly, and most importantly, I will never forget this night, because not only did we all get to work with a true legend of the industry we love, but Piper was one of the most genuinely kind and down to earth people I've ever met, in or out of the ring. What a stand up human being, and a moment none of us in attendance will ever forget.

[@DarkMsStress]

I really enjoyed seeing Roddy again. What a pro! He didn't play down to those guys. He gave these people a show as if it were a full house at Madison Square Garden! I wish I could hear the dialogue better.. But, Roddy's timing alone still put a smile on my face. Thank you for sharing.

[@jessicamariediamondwarrior7155]

i met roddy piper jake roberts and hogan on my tenth birthday they had stoped at the restaurant my mom had worked at late one night and my mom called my grandma to wake me up and bring me to meet them it was the best birthday ever had

[@babagitetv48]

Yooooooo! What did they say when they heard that it's your birthday?! Respond, please!

[@krummcutie]

I still get chills seeing this. It was an honor to work his table that night. RIP Roddy #donetoosoon

[@fatharold1788]

this is a great size crowd for a local promotion. reminds me of the 80's a little.

[@JayKhwaja]

80S, the best

[@spectrumlocalb191]

Fat Harold yes the crowd was great

[@renaldjean2190]

Tank you for everything you gave us Roddy RIP.

[@juliehiggins2021]

Legends never die.......

[@HostWithTheMost]

The man may die, but his legend lives on.

[@MickPsyphon]

Roddy will be remembered by everyone who knows about wrestling. I'll remember him, because he started from the school of hard knocks in Toronto, Canada! I know what he went through. R.I.P. Roderick! We love ya, mate!

[@indy1935]

Roddy actually made his last appearance in June at MCW in Joppa, MD. I was at this Lancaster event and the Joppa appearance. Great video though.

[@cjrichythebirdman5503]

I miss Roddy. I'm a Portland guy and he was always so nice to all of his fans... as long as you were nice to him.

[@AustinDickerson2001Tiger]

In memory of “Rowdy” Roddy Piper 1954 - 2015

[@bryanhaynes3764]

Roddy smiled all the way. What a wonderful life he lived spreading joy and laughter.

[@TakersMissy]

Thank you so much for posting this, but the audio is kinda unclear, especially at the beginning. Otherwise, R.I.P. dearest "Roddy" Rowdy Piper! I and millions of others will love and respect you forever, always cherishing priceless memories of you. Thank you "Hot Rod"!

[@deliagarza8125]

It would be nice if someone would caption it

[@stone1andonly]

A consummate performer to the very end, he had that room read and knew just how to play the scene. It didn't matter about the size of the room with Roddy, it was about the size of the performance.

[@NJFilmSyndicate]

A legend...one of the very best!! You are missed sir...

[@vinnyfaxx9267]

Piper never forgot where he came from. He didn't need to play these little arenas, but wanted to help the young guys just starting out. From his work in the NWA to the WWF, he drew $ wherever he went. One of the business's few legit family men, his heart was always at home in Portland..

[@robe.5502]

Played it till the end!!

[@stuartfitzsimons2786]

Goodbye Roddie RIP.

[@MrAac1984]

I knew I should have went to this. I'm not from Lancaster area. I had an estimate to do it there. I drove right past the arena and saw the advertising for piper. FUCK!

[@deliagarza8125]

I had a big crush on Rowdy Piper in the early nineties, I have seen his antics from the eighties they are incredible..

[@suzannerust8658]

How did I only just find this video?! I was lucky enough to meet Roddy twice before he passed, what a legend. RIP Hot Rod, GBNF x x x

[@theallseeingmaster]

It may have been his gimmick but wearing kilts in public, in North America, is a mark of a man, confident in his masculinity.

[@UltimateEnd0]

This is 100% true.

[@rubenortiz6744]

Thank You LCW for this and all you do you guys are great.

[@markbennettjr]

That entrance was a nice way for the fans to say goodbye

[@jpm4444]

great video. Roddy is like so many of the great wrestlers of the past. they give a show no matter if there are a 100 people in the crowd or 50000. RIP Roddy

[@getupstairstobed]

What class, other hall of famers still have awkward moments in a promo, none here. He made what is a very good looking promotion and made it rival anything on TNA at least. Id have loved to have been there

[@Akabackalooka]

What a good sport he was there! Reminds me of making my kids feel like super heroes. :)

[@glenandfreindsvlogs6636]

Proud to be Scottish RIP

[@wrlord]

Wow - really awesome of Piper to do this.

[@ericmadsen9655]

wrlord I bet you that Piper in his prime would have wrestled the guy he first interviewed and would have easily won the guys title. I have no doubt.

[@talyquiles1184]

It's sad that Roddy is not around anymore he was my favorite of all time i still watch his videos till this day i really do miss his entertainment R.I.P my friend

[@xBethvx]

I'm sad to hear of Rowdy's death. Back in my teenage years, and watching the story lines unfold. Rowdy was pretty awesome! I even had a Golden Retriever that I nicknamed Goldberg, and a Border Collie named Rowdy.. I nicknamed him Rowdy Roddy Piper! RiP. You are missed!

[@mica122213]

I miss you..

[@michelefagan3274]

☹

[@rubenortiz6744]

Was very happy and lucky I got to be at LCW that night got to see the PIPER in person.

[@jedijazz]

Humble and kind in real life. A good person. RIP Hot Rod

[@parkmccann7878]

After what he went through to make it he deserved a longer stint on this earth. But Roddy was a good man and I believe his spirit will go on and on. Love and miss you Rowdy one!

[@CARTOONIVERSE1]

This shows you how lame today's heels are when you see this guy next to The Rowdy One.

[@TakersMissy]

+CARTOONIVERSE1 Oh, HELL yeah!! :-) No comparison whatsoever. Piper was gold - especially on the mic, whereas most of today's guys are like tinfoil. Lol

[@bosmanebeezy9788]

I stg dude looked like a strait lame

[@barrycollins7164]

Great video of the greatest.

[@dannypendergraft2971]

This sucked so much cause i was born in 2008 and i never got a chance to meet Rowdy Roddy Piper in person i think it's the saddest lost The WWE Universe will ever know😥😥😥😥

[@niteporter]

😭 love n miss you roddy piper. One of the greatest of all time. Thank you for everything.

[@JayKhwaja]

Rowdy Roddy Piper LIVES FOREVER

[@bigD5172]

The champ is the closest thing that Piper had since Frank Williams.

[@obadel]

Tank you he was older but he's still will always be the hot rod

[@Old-biker]

At the very last he found Jesus, so glad he did. Hogan played his last message back, and it was like he knew time was short.. Shortly after he died.. I hope to see you again in heaven bro hope to see you all..

[@BlackNGoldRules]

He was gone just two months later. That sucks.

[@walterstead4810]

You made wrestling great..thank you..

[@jesseray6340]

One of the best, RIP Rowdy.

[@Zeitgeistmusic997]

I love that he was a star despite playing a Scottish character and never putting any effort in changing his Canadian accent. That's why he was good in movies too. He just played an extension of himself without trying

[@jaredpritchard4991]

He looked so happy

[@donemerson699]

A wonderful human being!

[@spectrumlocalb191]

MY FRIEND RODDY LOOKED GREAT HERE, HE PUT WEIGHT BACK ON.

[@indy1935]

Correction: July in Joppa not June

[@mattkevin9531]

Camera man should be fired

[@freddi7588]

R.I.P. HOT ROD !

[@apachewolf1132]

The one, The only, Rowdy Roddy Piper!

[@ivansaravia5924]

RIP. this wasn't his last appearence. MCW was.

[@IlluminovaNibiru]

10:50 holding his doll up lol. Awesome. Love it!

[@MrSkegman]

I remember himPortland Oregon.Doug Savage.Tony(Tough Tony Borne) hay Stack Calhoun Sandy Barr.

[@mershad]

all they had to say was rowdy was going to be there.

[@blainecarter4115]

here's my favorite. Like the uncle I never had to me he's always going to be around whenever time you hear that music whenever time you're here right port Birds Space sorry I'm a little shaken up but all in all member he was bad before bad was cool rest in peace hotrod

[@brianmacklin8625]

He came, he saw, he chewed his bubble gum and kicked alot of ass in the wrestling entertainment world. Thank you for alot of great memories Hot Rod.

[@joen5332]

No matter what paper can make you laugh rest in peace brother

[@p4t21ck]

That bagpipe player made Motorhead look like a high school band.

[@baliw33]

My tag team Henry"Meatball" Robinson and Albert "NaNa Scooter" Robinson were the Lancaster world tag team champions!

[@weirdsearchhistory5876]

I don't think I'd want to die with a heart attack. I mean look at Roddy here, he was smiling and interacting with his fans, probably didn't have one symptom up until the heart attack and then Boom! Dead. No chance to prepare himself and get his affairs in order. He was probably fine one minute and gone the next. I wouldn't want a drawn out illness but I would like to have at least a little notice so I can make final preparations.

[@TakersMissy]

+Poppa Poppy Well, I read one account that Bruce Pritchard had reportedly said that poor Roddy had like 3-4 heart attacks within the last few years of his life. VERY sad. You can see, about 5-6 minutes into the video of his last "Piper's Pit" at Joppa, MD (which is on here on YT) where he says, "I'm not gonna make many more of these, so I wanna enjoy them while I can". So I've wondered if that wasn't a subtle hint to the fans that he felt he wouldn't live much longer, I don't know. But I DO know the love, respect, and gratitude millions of us fans have for him and our memories of him WILL live forever!! RIP dearest Hot Rod: you'll never be forgotten OR duplicated.

[@weirdsearchhistory5876]

TakersMissy It'll be hard for me to forget when he died because he died on my birthday.

[@TakersMissy]

Oh goodness - that's had to make it DOUBLY sad for you! :-( So sorry to hear that.

[@occraig]

the way a lot of people are dying is lack of sleep which is why you should have a sleep study done to see if you are putting stress on your heart when you sleep

[@robertvelez9557]

Joe Mumma - Rowdy was born on my birthday which makes his passing extremely tough!

[@venturawoods1314]

I'm sure Piper sold more tickets than the entire card combined but still a decent production and crowd. Dude runs in with the sling huffin and puffin lol no announcement. That's not gonna work if the dude isn't very well known and even then he needs recognizable theme music blasted to introduce him. The building is small and the ring entrance is 30 feet so you step out and run in the ring it takes 3 seconds no one knows wtf is going on. Then Snisky and that other greasy bastard are standing around with their fingers and their asses someone has to step up. Gotta lead out there, there's gotta be a 'go-to' which needs to be addressed beforehand. Two mannequins ain't gonna work. Crowd knows nothing, step out of line, grab the crowd and get back on line.

[@Turnheadcough]

Damn I'm from Lebanon I wish I would have known he did this show I would definitely have been there

[@257jaznaa]

Rip!

[@spectrumlocalb191]

If your going to bring someone like RODDY in at least get good mics.

[@vinniemoreno704]

Such a class act.

[@rayjohnson4741]

[@tommymann69]

I wanted to see hotrod take on Hogan on last time. And hotrod take him apart

[@completesentences2125]

[@amickguitar303]

RIP Hot-Rod.

[@jasonsulham9495]

snitsky rhyno and who was the other guy in the ring with them

[@danlivni2097]

+Jason Sulham Your right Gene Snitsky from WWE at 9:18. He's like 6-8. He should shave the beard off.

[@John42ification]

The day he died was also the end of wrestling's last gasp. It's not worth watching most of the time now.

[@aztec999999]

Funniest dude . So cool

[@williamdavenportii764]

The great one pipers pit
