So many to list but some that come to mind are beating Norm Devio at a tournament I supposedly wasn't good enough to place in and another tourny I beat Sebastian Lopez, Ron Klemba and Anthony Dall' Antonio in the same tournament. That was a big day finishing top 3 with Allen Fisher and Kenny Hughes.
Now I struggle to pull my 4 year old!! ;D

Breaking my Left arm at the 97 AAAs, and seeing Eric Woerfel for the 1st time, after reading about him.....And saying to myself, that I wanted to beat him... At the 02 Harley Pull, I got my "shot" at him and beat him 3 times that day, twice to win and once in the overalls.....

many moons ago when I first got started I had the pleasure of beating Tony Villa (wristwrestling) and Mike Ohara (armwrestling). the younger guys probably dont know these guys. I would say most recently beating Luke Stanley and Bill Logsden at a don underwood toproll event was fun too left handed. I got the pleasure of pulling Kevin Bongard at the unifieds this year but it didnt come out too well for me!! still great experience though.

John brzenk, I didn't beat him in a tourney or beat him at all but, I seperated his arm and started rolling his hand over but, that was at practice. I know in a tourney he would crush me. .......what?.........this example is hilarious. A perfect example of how skewed people think about TRAINING. Skewed I know that John was just hanging out and waiting but, I still opened him up, and started rolling his hand over. Take it how you want it, you weren't there.

Mike- I know who O'Hara is, very, very fast hit.
Dave Chaffee broke his arm in his first event, and I didnt want to make a big deal of it when he pulled Doug best of 5 due to that. No disrespect to Doug, but it wasnt even close! Dave beat him right handed smooth and easy 3 in a row. Huge comeback, but not so huge in the sense I have said all along where this guy can go. He will mix it up with the very best in 2 years. The 3 B's.

Mike- you are right, alot of people dont know who Mike Ohara is. I used to train with Mike. He is a great dude! He is one who I miss seeing in this sport very much. Mike Ohara had such a passion for armwrestling.
