National Wrestling Hall of Fame and Museum
The National Wrestling Hall of Fame and Museum is a museum and hall of fame for amateur wrestling, headquartered in Stillwater, Oklahoma. In 2010, it began operating the Dan Gable Museum in Waterloo, Iowa.
==History==
The museum was awarded to Stillwater in 1972 by a decision of the United States Wrestling Federation, which chose Stillwater over a competing bid from Waterloo, Iowa.〔("Sports in brief: Wrestling" ), ''Bangor Daily News'', July 25, 1972.〕 The museum opened on September 11, 1976.
In 2010, the National Wrestling Hall of Fame absorbed the Dan Gable Museum in Waterloo, previously operated by the Dan Gable International Wrestling Institute and Museum.〔("Hall buys Gable museum" ), ''Telegraph Herald'', May 27, 2010 .〕 That museum had opened in 1998 in Newton, Iowa, and moved to Waterloo in 2006.〔("Chapman retires from Dan Gable Museum" ), ''The Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier'', November 25, 2009.〕
The museum operates by private donations and state funding. Six people from Oklahoma formed the Hall of Fame corporation: Myron Roderick, Dr. Melvin D. Jones, Ralph Ball, Robert L. McCormick, Bill Aufleger, and Veldo Brewer. Oklahoma State University, through its then-president, Dr. Robert B. Kamm, provided land – at no cost – with a 99-year renewable lease.
