First of all I have to apologize to Mr. Drenk and Bill Collins for not making it to LAX this weekend!!!
I started off Friday 9am from Stone Harbor New Jersey (beach) for the 3 hr ride to BWI (Baltimore Washington International) after missing the 1:50pm flight to LAX it was off to Washington Dulles an hour away to catch to 6:55pm, or at worst the 10:05pm to LAX.. What I didn't know was that a flight from Washington Reagan to Burbank Ca was canceled at 2pm and travelers were scrambling to get anywhere close and the LAX flights were perfect for united to offer these paying customers... Needless to say I was forced to Chicago at 6am the next day only to find the connection to LAX was full, so back home down $245.00 and missing the BEST EVENT OF THE YEAR!!!! Before someone says I should have gotten a confirmed seat, keep in mind that I have been traveling stand-by for ten years and have had some close calls but never missed an event!!!!
Travis Bagent
The event looks awesome from the ARMTV camera!!!

The UAL raised $187.00 at the event  not what we hoped for. We also lost out on the photo personnel expense $200, Pulling for the cure "Travis Bagent" shirts $900 and banner expenses $500..... I would have donated more but the cost of all of the items that didn't get used was all I could afford. Next time I hope Travis makes sure his flight leaves earlier. I do appreciate the apology though. Robert |

I do appreciate the apology though. Robert I just bought some stuff off the site. Was hoping sometime soon we can also buy a UAL event DVD. And i noticed Travis was taking off the site not sure what was going on but ...yeah sucks Travis could not make it out really wanted to watch him pull. Owell the event looked amazing from what i seen on ARMTV hopefully you keep pushing hard to put more events on like this i can just see it turning into arm wrestling domination over the top huge.  |

Not to mention the advertisement, promotional items, the permit, tent rental, t & e and an important factor <creditability (foundation)> X your number by 2 and your getting close... I also appreciate the apology, I did get a call from Travis on Friday, but still have to bust his chops......."stand-by" I won't go there! |

Travis is more than welcome to come to the next event and win through the tournament bracket so he can get into the super matches and win some BIG money. Travis was removed from the front of the website because Jerry and John are the Super Heavy Weight Champions of the UAL. Every puller (Professional) will have a profile once they join the UAL by attending an event, Travis didnt make the event therefor he has no ranking with the UAL yet. Once he gets Ranked his profile will go back up. I plan on getting an amateur profile page as well but that is towards the back of my list for now. Check out the website for updates www.TheUAL.com |

Big props Rob. You're a great promoter and getting greater. I think you really know how to sell the sport.
But I know you're a businessman, and I can only hope you took in enough capital to justify keeping this experiment going.
Many thanks for a surreal weekend.

In terms of the show aspect and the "professional" treatment of the truly best PROS, this is the best job that I have ever seen done. |

not what we hoped for.
