All I can say is wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Every UAL I have been to has left my head spinning! I'm completely impressed! I'm very honored to be part of something so awesome!! The supermatches were top notch and competitive. Can't say enough about it but as a puller I will say I will leave my arm on the table for an organization that cares like the ual does

Well put, Jake. Although this was the first tournament I have ever attended, and was also my first time pulling in one, I felt like I was at a rock concert. No expense was spared, and to be an active part of it was an experience I will never forget for the rest of my life. I met the some of the coolest cats a person could ever hope to meet, and I have absolutely nothing negative to say about the event. It is unfortunate that Lupkes and Cadorette got postponed, but we're still gonna see it first thing today, so WTF? No biggy. The entire staff at UAL is a team of absolute professionals, and handled their business admirably at this show. The supermatch card was unbelievable, and filled with world-class talent. The best matches I have seen to date took place at this show. Maybe it was just the feeling of watching it live, but witnessing Cobras supermatch victory is one of the most inspirational wins ever. And To all those who missed out, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND ATTENDING THE NEXT UAL EVENT!!! I know I'm just a newb with no basis for comparison, but theoretically take all of the energy and excitement from your favorite concert venue that you've been to, change the show to armwrestling, and there you have it.

Tournament has been sick! Venue, stage, music, videos, intros, lighting, matches up on two giant screens. Had a TV quality feel. The supermatches were AWESOME. The pullers were mic' ed up, which was a very cool addition. The Swede and Norwegian were VERY impressive, but chad and cobra came out on top - WARRIORS. Cobra is THE MAN!
You can tell how much work went into this tournament, can only hope for more of this quality. Judging this event so far, a few hiccups, and a thousand highpoints and awesome moments, as a spectator and a puller, top notch.

Simply Worth every penny spent.
These guys are the real deal. Robert and Mike are business professionals and know how to SELL. I am sold. Neil and Bill have over 50 years of combined experience in promoting the sport of arm wrestling both domestically and internationally.
This was more than just a tournament with hefty cash prizes. The super match main event show was off the hook. Everything was rehearsed to a "T". There was a minor timing issue (25-30 minutes) and I will not name any names but that timing issue was NOT any of the promoters fault. Rather it was because a handful of arm wrestlers did NOT show up at a very specific time as instructed.
Every event gets better and better. These guys do things better every single time and learn from minor things that need to be tweaked.
I'm very excited that I won my match with Mac, but none of would have been possible without Robert, Bill, Neil and the rest of the UAL staff. I cannot describe how much of an honor it felt like to be a part of that show (even though we had to finish it the next day, no big deal). so thanks again for doing what you are doing and seeing the bigger picture.
Like it was said in the interview on ArmTv make 10 cents on each of a million people , that is the direction this hopefully goes.

UAL is the NEXT LEVELwe have all been waiting for, simply look at the all star cast at this event, from the show to the competetion this event was stacked
I met so many cool people and got to hang out with some old friends as well, armwrestling really is a sport with alot of classy people
its a shame there werent more people on hand to witness this event especially the supermatches INSANE!!!
I wish everybody in the armwrestling community would jump on board with the UAL its the biggest step in the right direction armwrestling in the US has ever taken, we should all put aside our differences and try to help push this machine Bill, Robert and Neil have built........again AWSOME!!!!

Now Robert and Bill have more difficult subject; they have to make the next Event better than the Tournament in Lake Tahoe, which is very hard if we consider that the last one was amazing! Just unbelieveable job! Congratulations!
