Wowzers

Everyone needs to read this book I can't believe how great it is. I hate reading and I couldn't put this book down. Mick Foley is so talented and you definetely don't have to be a wrestling fan to enjoy this.


For the hardcore Foley fans, hear him tell the story

I'm a Foley fan and wanted to get this version of the original book also with my hardcover and paper back versions. It is 3 cd"s of a little more than an hour each that Foley read himself. He also does impression of other people in the wrestling business along the way. It has all the greatest parts from the book so it is an edited version. One of the best with the ultimate dream story coming true for one of the true people in the wrestling business.

A WONDERFUL BOOK THAT MADE ME A FAN!

When I picked this book up for a friend I was a casual wrestling fan. Unfortunatly my friend was out of town so I couldn't give him the book. On a long car drive I picked up the book and decided to check it out. I was amazed at how well written this witty and inteligent story was. I read the entire book and have since then read the book at least a dozen times. I am now a full-fledged wrestling fan. Trust me: BUY THIS BOOK NOW, IT'S MY 2nd FAVORITE BOOK ONLY BESTED BY IT'S SEQUEL "FOLEY IS GOOD"

Have a Nice Day!

I confess to being a life long wrestling fan and a fan of Mick Foley. I do not, however, believe this clouds my vision of his first book. "Have a Nice Day" is Foley's autobiographical story of his life inside wrestling - how he sacrificed, how he survived, what he had to do to make it to the top. Throughout, he adds insight to the "backstage" world of the sports and entertainment hybrid of pro wrestling.

As has been documented, Foley wrote this book by hand after rejecting what a ghostwriter did at first. As a result, it is not the smooth style of a professional - which is not entirely a bad thing. This personalizes Foley's book.

Foley's book is a very good read for wrestling fans and a fairly good one for non-fans. His story telling makes it suitable for those who are not "in the know." The main criticism of the book I find is that it was a bit choppy, which can confuse some readers. This is due, of course, to his inexperience as a writer.

All in all, a great rookie outing, although he misspells Bret Hart's name throughout.
