Houston’s (Paul Boesch) 1980 Payouts

By Scott Keith on 13 March 2021



Hello Scott,

While browsing through FB in a Group, I found this rather interesting image. Looks like the Houston's payouts from 1980 (from the roster, that's what I can tell). Mil Mascaras making more money a night than the World Heavyweight Champion Harley Race. With inflation,
looks like they might be making ~7000 USD; not bad for a one night's work! Plus, midgets making $16!
The midgets had individual payoffs, it looks like the $16 was some kind of booking fee paid to the Dallas promotion where they came from? Also with inflation they’d be almost 5 feet tall today!
