You just have to love Jimmy. Here are a couple of comments he made on 97.1 after learning that Ford Field is being considered as a location for WrestleMania.

“Why not the Big House?” Harbaugh said, according to CBS Detroit blog, after he called back. “Why not? 140,000 I bet we could get in there for WrestleMania. They’re trying to break the attendance record at Jerry Jones’ Stadium in Dallas. A great Canadian presence in wrestling. Why not Michigan and the Big House?”



It was suggested to Harbaugh by a show producer that he referee a Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan match.

“I’m in,” he said, according to the blog.



“Who doesn’t like a good wrestling match?” he said.



“I’d be one of those guys coming out with a towel, waving the towel,” he said. “I’ll be a corner man.”



The man is full of great ideas. Though Rick and Hulk might be in their 60’s now.
