Wrestling legend Harley Race was scheduled for an appearance at a Fan Expo in Knoxville Tennesee this past weekend but had to cancel due to some signs that indicated he needed medical assistance. Race, who is now 76, has an ongoing battle with lung cancer. His official Twitter page announced earlier today that there is still no time-table on when he can leave, but that updates will be provided later in the day. Check it out below.
For the fans attending #fanboyexpo, Mr. Race was en route to Knoxville and while travelling, showed some signs that needed to be checked out. Currently, he is waiting on the OK to leave and then – well-being pending – he will proceed to Knoxville to fulfill his appearance.
