Strongman Kokomo June 9th

[Alcoholiday]

if anyone's around kokomo, in, chad coy's holding a strongman contest at his gym on June 9th. It's sure to be a great contest, LOTS of heavy events, and pro cards will be given out as well.

I'll be there. Chris will too (haha), or at least, i'm TELLING him that he will. It will be a good time. Plus, Sonic is only a block or so away from his gym. Just imagine, cherry limeaids on a hot June day.

I'd love to go but I don't think I'm going to be able to swing it. but we'll see about it!

This is a very heavy contest (as it should be for pros). I would get crushed by a few events.

My sister's graduation is right around that time, which means I'll be in windsor, which is a lot closer to kokomo than toronto...

interesting

i got to see what they're thinking about using for loading, and it's heavy and cool.

i don't know if they're still going to do cuts or not. I think he was thinking there was going to be 40 ppl signing up, but i don't know if they've reached that yet.

Such a shame. That place is infamous. Took my fiance there once after a friend's wedding reception. It was her first time in a "gentleman's club". NOT the wisest thing I've ever done. I keep telling her that they are not all like that, but I think she's scarred for life.

[Alcoholiday]

for a second, i thought you said after YOUR wedding reception. ha
