Eight years ago....
The first public gathering of a large size after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on New York City and Washington D.C. was in Houston, Texas, as WWE went live with SmackDown on Sept. 13.
"We will not live our lives in fear! The citizens of Houston are not afraid. The citizens of Texas are indeed not afraid. And by God, the citizens of the United States are not afraid!Â
For we are a proud people, proud of who we are, and we are damn proud to be Americans! ... We will fight for our families. We will fight for our rights. And we will fight for our great nation!Â
America's heart has been wounded, but her spirit shines as a beacon of freedom, that never has been or never will be extinguished!"Â
Mr. McMahon
SmackDown, Sept. 13, 2001
Houston, Texas

Never forget. God Bless our Troops. And the USA!
