25 Strangest Places In Which Pro-Wrestling Has Taken Place: Part 2 (15-1)

#2 The Smithsonian

Jeff Jarrett and Dutch Mantell once had a match at the Smithsonian's music concert hall for the cultural institutions Lonesome Pine Specials. The two famous Southern wrestlers, neither of them known for having high-brow musical tastes (and Jarrett known specifically for singing low-rent country music), literally had a routine match in a standard-sized ring as musician Walter Mays conducted a percussion orchestra in the background.

Jarrett would go on to win the match with a sunset flip rollup but the orchestra's number ended almost simultaneously, making it unclear whether the cheering audience were rooting for the wrestlers or the musicians. This is hilariously bizarre.
