RIP The Iron Sheik

Happy National Upsy Daisy Day! I’m not totally sure what that means, but I’d say go ahead and say “upsy daisy” as often as you can — going up the stairs, picking up your cat, literally any chance you get.
This is The Reset Button from Classic Nerd, resetting your day.
June 8 in Nerd History
Here are 5 things that happened on June 8 that matter to those of us who remember The Iron Sheik as the ultimate heel — in a good way.
I.
Birthdays of honor: Jerry Stiller (1927), Tim Berners-Lee (1955), Keenen Ivory Wayans (1958), Joan Rivers (1933), Nancy Sinatra (1940).
II.
It was one hell of a day at the theaters in 1984 for movies that fit certain holidays but came out in summer. Both and hit theaters on this day that year.
