WATERLOO, Iowa -- The National Wrestling Hall of Fame Dan Gable Museum will host a special autograph signing with Dan Gable on Friday, March 30 from 3-5 p.m. The signing will take place during USA Wrestling's Folkstyle Nationals held at the UNI Dome in Cedar Falls.
This is USA Wrestling's final event of the folkstyle season, taking place on March 30 through April 1 at the UNI Dome. It is also the first stage of the Triple Crown, which is made up of the Folkstyle Nationals, and the Freestyle and Greco-Roman Nationals.

The UNI Dome was also where Dan Gable won his final NCAA tournament as the head coach of the Iowa Hawkeyes in 1997, setting the record for most points scored at 170.
That National Wrestling Hall of Fame Dan Gable Museum is located at 303 Jefferson St. in Waterloo. All are welcome to attend this special autograph signing.
