After the match, which Roberts lost, ended, Cooper got involved and threw Jake’s snake Damien at Honky’s manager Jimmy Hart . Roberts considered the involvement of Cooper to be an honor, as he had idolized Cooper in his youth and was still a huge fan. WrestleMania III, which attracted a WWF record 93,173 fans, was held in the Pontiac Silverdome near Cooper’s home town of Detroit.
