Though July 1st is Canada Day, the celebration in Brampton Ontario also included elements of India, Pakistan, Japan, New Zealand, and even the streets of Harlem, New York. Such is the concept of TigerFest 2012, the fundraiser put on by legendary wrestler, humanitarian and philanthropist Tiger Jeet Singh and his son wrestling superstar Tiger Ali Singh as part of the city’s festivities.
Brampton Mayor Susan Fennel, Wrestling’s Living Legend Tiger Jeet Singh, City Councillor Vicky Dhillon and Bollywood singing sensation RDB swung to the beat, at the weekend’s TigerFest, held in Brampton, Ontario.
While the day saw a number of entertainment events, the real highlight was – given Tiger Jeet Singh’s background – wrestling action. The wrestling was greeted with tremendous enthusiasm by the huge crowds and was brought to a climax during the main event, where over 10,000 Tiger-Maniacs watched as Tiger’s son Tiger Ali Singh and tag team partner Shawn Daivari had their hands raised in victory. Both Mayor Fennel and Tiger Jeet Singh presented the two former WWE Superstars with the championship trophy.
