Here's a story of Dynamite ribbing a man that was like a father to him:
>After a while, he began to think of Dynamite as a son. It turned out to be as much a curse for old J.R. as it was a blessing. The road stories of Dynamite’s ribs on Foley are as endless as they are deranged. Wrestler Bad News Allen remembers sitting next to Foley in the van on one road trip. Being drunk and goofy, J.R. was wearing a paper baker’s hat. “Foley kept saying, ‘Jesus Christ, it’s hot in here,’” recalls Allen. “I took a look at him and damn! Dynamite had set his hat on fire. I said ‘Man, Tommy, you’re gonna kill this guy. What’s wrong with you?’”
>Alison Hart’s ex-husband Ben Bassarab recalls Dynamite at one Saskatoon hotel filling J.R.’s toilet with lighter fluid, knowing that Foley liked to smoke a cigarette on the can. When Foley threw the smouldering butt between his legs into the toilet bowl, the resulting flash singed his privates.
