0-175 is going to be the light weight class for this one. Definitely both arms though. I'm left dominant, I can't roll with just one arm.

In light of WAL postponing their New Orleans tournament, I've applied to rent the school gym across the street from the original venue. More info to come. I hope to see everyone there!!!!!

I'm adding a $100 buy in, winner take all Robby Burnett challenge. It will happen during the course of the tournament, order is luck of the draw. Who ever is the first to beat Robby wins the pot. If no one does he takes it.

Matthew, I have a Maine tournament that day that I am committed to attend but I wanted to wish you luck and thank you for supporting women. Hopefully the girls from TX, on the board will put this up in their local gyms and use media to spread the word.
I'll look forward to the results.

I have heard so much whining lately. "I'm fat", "I ate too much turkey", "I can't make weight", "I'm Tom Nelson and I say so all the time". So in response to all this griping and complaining, I'M RAISING THE CLOTHING ALLOWANCE TO 5 LBS!!!!
I want everyone to have a good time and not stress. I really appreciate everyone that is coming. It's going to be an awesome event!
