Congrats on the sponsor! This is an easy fix…most already said it’s one of the most prestigious events to attend, so if you gave away ass kicking awards (no plaques) you’ll still get a turn out….most smart business people don’t spend more than they can absorb…you structure your budget around the sponsorship…you have 10k to spend, use it wisely. I’d buy two more jackets (2nd & 3rd place) from the guy that donates the championship jacket and give them away, in addition to less cash…You’ll still get the turn out and when the prize money is spent they still have a nice jacket…the pullers are our customers and to set up a donation account in addition to all the events they support? listen to the man, people attend the arnolds have rooms full of trophys, I dont care if never get another damn trophy but an arnold jacket is something you can keep and use for a long time, oh ya and have a qualifier on the west coast that is not a week apart from the unified nationals -----perhaps the UNIFIED NATIONALS you want the best WHY IS THIS NOT A QUALIFIER!!! Leonard's update states "ALL" national champions?

That was to mean "International National Champions" The only National Championship in the US that is a qualifier is the USAA National Pro-Am Championship in Hartford, Ct Sorry for the confusion

David, as I know you live in California now. And the Lost city Golden Dragon tournament ( Tonopah) is not that far from you. It will be not hard to win there for you to be qualified for Arnold. I agree that Unified Nationals should be a qualifier, but this time it happened in another way. But they suggest another solution for CA, NV,AZ pullers which is Nevada State and we can use that. So, here you go. A carpool, motel for 1 night and it's done! Cash prizes in addition.
Probably they will consider this thing and will make Unified 2013 ACAC qualifier.

I am very glad to inform that winners in Neveda State Championship kindly donated $40 each to Save Arnold Classic Idea. They did it as they got their money prizes. Thank you guys. Now people can see that you wish to be qualified for Arnolds and to participate, and for that goal you make the donation to make Arnolds happen again. Well, still many armwrestlers "don't understand" how serious is The Subject and they dissapear as we talk about donation. And it is not about they don't have money. They spend more money on Beer and weed. Let's hope that they will realize it sooner or later. Dear friends, donation is still in process. If you want to make a donation you can send a check to USAA, make a payment on PayPal at usarmwrestling.com, or just see Denise at any event and make your part of donation in this important Idea.
Thank you!
