Did you end up dominating the frat boy strongman last weekend or is that this weekend? Shreveport is next weekend, correct? Keep us updated!
Boats and hoes
Stumble in to the liquor store
With a dollar-fifty for a bottle of wine,
I know just what I'm lookin for
Thunderbird will do just fine.
It was a day of Vincent domination last weekend. I won, Matt took second.
Baton Rouge is next Saturday, 4/26. Other events I'm looking at:
Georgia's Strongest Man; June 7
Carolina Strongman Classic; August 30
NAS National Championships; September 13 -- 14, Provo, UT
The NC contest is the highest level, and the winner will get his pro card. Lonny, the guy that took second in Conroe really wants to go to this one. I was definitely going, but the weights are ridiculously heavy (the farmer's walk is 50lbs/hand heavier than the TX one), and it's 2 weeks before nationals. I'm still undecided about this one. The overall winner of each division at nationals also gets their pro card.
I'm not sure about GA, because one of the other guys from Baton Rouge wants to qualify for nationals, and needs to finish in the top 3 in GA to do so. There's another really good guy in FL that will be there, and he doesn't like his chances with Lonny, myself, Matt, and this other guy. I'd like all of the LA guys to qualify for nationals, and I'm starting to wonder if I wouldn't be better off training really hard all summer for the Fall competitions and skipping GA.

Where's the one in NC? The link won't open up here at the office.
I decided to do a comp in Columbia, SC on 8/2 instead of the NC one. I'm just not ready for a competition with weights like NC yet. So, here's my schedule:
8/2: Beast of the East; Columbia, SC
8/16: SW Strongest Man; Dallas, TX http://www.nastrongmaninc.com/pdf/entries/southwest.pdf
8/23: Exhibition at Taste of Tiger Tailgating
9/13: NAS Nationals; Provo/SLC, UT
I hope to see the TAMOR North contingent in Dallas.![]()
