Spotted the winged wheel on MTV in 1991



I’m not sure if this has been shared before, but I was watching the Headbangers Ball Uncensored documentary from MTV2 on YouTube and saw the host, Riki Rachtman, wearing a Wings jersey. This was from 1991 when Nirvana made their first appearance on the show. I don’t think he has any connections to Detroit based on his Wikipedia page, and I couldn’t tell which number is on the jersey.

    Hey, that’s pretty cool.

    Always love seeing Red Wings merch in places you wouldn’t expect. Once when I was in Dubai of all places, my buddies and I went to the giant mall they had there. Checked out a store and one of the clerks was wearing a Ciccarelli Jersey (this was in 2012). Had to ask him if he was a Wings fan, and sadly he was not. He just saw it in a second hand store, and thought it looked really cool.

  2. He was a fan of the Wings and the Kings. He’s worn both jerseys on HB.
