Hello Sol! Well thanks for the fast response. I'll do my best to give answers to your inquiries. The entry fee for this event stands at $275. The final payout at the National Event will be ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS (U.S.) and a new Hummer S.U.V. Nick is at his home in New York this evening 1 Jan. 2005. The prize money at each state event (New York, 29 Jan), will be as follows; $5,000 awarded to our Champion along with an expense paid trip to the Nationals. This will be paid by a certified check on the day of the event(Please note that cash prize winners will be responsible for thier own taxes).

Hello Sol, Sorry I missed a question.You do not have to pre-pay.Entries and weigh-ins will conducted on the 29 Jan 2005 from 10am-2pm. Also, someone had asked if Nick was wrestling on the 29. The answer to that is yes. After the Arm Wrestling event he will be wrestling that night(there will be a bus available if anyone wishes to go to that show from the Arm Wrestling).

Hello Sol, Yes, there will be three weight classes. Each of the classes will payout to third place. Third place in each class will pay $300. Second place in each class will pay $500. Now I have put the twist in here for the first place winners in each class. The three class champions will now face off to decide the overall champion. With three cash prizes of $1,000.,$2,500. and $5,000 left to distribute, the class winners are guaranteed to win one of these prizes. So if you win your class, you will leave with at least the $1000(awarded for third place overall).I hope that covers your question, and I would like to thank you for your support. I was not involved with this project at it's beginning and I (no doubt) have a long way to go, but rest assured that this will be a great tournament.

Hello,
Don't get offended, I don't know everyone so I have some questions.
When did you start refereeing, who trained you?
What events have you been a referee at and how many have you officiated at.

Hello Leonard, I must admit that I am not offended by your inquiries. I no doubt will be "under fire" from many people in the days to come. My experience as a referee dates back to 1981.
As for who trained me I guess the question is for what organization? I have been involved with Wristwrestling and Armwrestling as both a competitor and Promoter. I have worked with AAA, World National WristWrestling, WPAA, USA, International Armwresting Assc., Michigan Arms, Power Armwresting, New Mexico Armwrestlers Assc., Indiana Armwrestling. I was captain of the World Champion Oldstyle Armbenders for five years and can list out some of my team members for those of you who wish to check my background. My good friend Tony Villa,was a member of the most successful Wristwrestling team ever assembled. Along with Larry Sofield, Bill Ballinger, Tom Wilson, Ron Bath, Cobra Rhodes, Steve Pettis, Greg Wilson, Vernon Lange are few names off of the list, that contains over 100, that competed on the Oldstyle Team. I have refereed at state, national, and world events. I also directed and refereed at nine different tournaments for Vangaurd Distributors (that is nine Yucon Jack events).
