August 17th 2014 VFW Post 8235 will host Beast Bash
By: VFW Post 8235 in River Oaks Texas This event is being called the Beast Bash at The VFW, and will be a daylong event that features fun for all ages. Events include Adult and Children’s games such as “Fish Cup”; a game that requires tossing a Ping-Pong ball into a cup with a Gold Fish in order to win a pet Gold Fish, Bobbing for Apples and for the adults games like Bobbing for Beer, where the competitor dunks their head in a tub of water trying to rescue a can of beer only with the use of their mouth. There is a planned Men’s only Arm Wrestling Tournament and Female only Submission Grappling/ Mud Wrestling Tournament. Despite the provocative sound of the mud wrestling event attire for this is family appropriate and is a legitimate grappling event with the use of a small ring to ensure activity and mud to make the event more of a challenge. Competitors in these events must register on the event website, send in their photo and they will be eligible to receive sponsorships that will be donated to the VFW at the end of the competitions. There is a required 100 dollar minimum to enter. All Sponsorships and a portion of the vendor profits will go to support VFW Post 8235 in River Oaks Texas. The Event website is sponsored by Knife and Hand to Hand Combat.com a veteran owned and operated website. http://www.knife- “We already have the venue, but we need volunteers, competitors and sponsors. So far I have contacted three local grappling schools to see if they were interested in providing female grapplers. Only one so far has expressed interest and that is a local school Genesis Jiu – Jitsu. Honestly I hope to see more interest from the community. This could be a great opportunity for local businesses to sponsor, get their name out, interact with the public and help the community. I also think that this event will be just an all-around fun time. We really have to pull together to make this thing happen though. This is a great cause, the VFW does things for the community on a daily basis like meals on wheels for example. They do home comings for active duty members, support service member families and also help sponsor community events themselves. These guys stay behind the scenes making things happen. We are on a limited time frame to get sponsors for this, get competitors rally volunteers and make this thing everything that it has the potential to be. We’d like to get local press or live radio coverage to help this thing get some love”, says Andrew Curtiss a sponsor and spokesman for the event. Dan Severn will be a celebrity guest and the head official for the event. He will have meet and greet autograph signings and photo opportunities throughout the day. He will also make special announcements at certain parts of the day. This is an event that has the potential to be very successful and help out the community on multiple levels. For aspiring competitors, volunteers, vendors, sponsors and others who would like to get involved Contact Andy Curtiss the spokesman for this event at unarmedcombat@ End
