New York, NY | May 17

Flair has been performing on big stages for well over 40 years, captivating and inspiring audiences around the globe. His career started on local circuits in the early 1970s before he broke into the mainstream, becoming one of the biggest draws in the 1980s, '90s. and beyond.

Known for his signature "Wooo!" and manic energy, Flair, billed as the "Nature Boy" throughout much of his career, is one of the biggest crowd-pleasers in the history of sports entertainment. 

Though he suffered a medical setback in 2017, Flair has since been cleared and has gotten right back to what he's best at, creating a spectacle with his bombastic personality.

There's no surer bet for a memorable experience than a Ric Flair appearance, which is just one more reason why the Rumble on the River is not to be missed.
