Coming Soon Charlottesville Lady Arm Wrestlers (CLAW)
Some of Charlottesville’s hottest and coolest ladies are organizing a new sports & entertainment league for the betterment of all.
Part pro-wrestling, part olympics, part charity and all woman, CLAW will stage monthly Arm Wrestling contests at the Blue Moon Diner.
That’s right Villainettes: Here is your chance to flex your muscles and put your trash talking skills to good use. Do you think you have what it takes? Do you know someone who does?
Villains: Who would you most like to see battle it out in the CLAW arm-wrestling cage? Who would win?
These ladies will soon be signed to ESPN 12, so see them while you can.
Proceeds will go towards local non-profits benefiting women (SHE, SARA, Free Clinic, Planned Parenthood, etc.).
Interested in arm wrestling or acting as a “manager,” “promoter,” or “coach” email me (Silmo Syrup) and I’ll pass you along to CLAW’s organizers, Jennifer aka “The Prim Reaper” and Jodie aka “MoJo the Underdog “

2o4, LaGrape, Happy Hooker, Caroline, Lys, Floozy, MC Are you up for the challenge??? Or are you a bunch of sissy-girls?
Lillith, contestants can wear costumes (a la professional wrestling) so you can compete AND protect your identity. No excuses.
Oh, C & I are still waiting on that rsvp
I think they would have a bigger audience if, instead of arm wrestling, the ladies body wrestled in a large vat of olive oil . . .
Honestly, I’d do better in the olive oil venture - I’m scrappy, but that doesn’t help for arm wrestling (and my bicepts are the circumference of most people’s wrists). That being said, me loves the trash talk.
Geez, how original….*rolling eyes at smiley…..
I ain’t no sissy, I’m in, if Lilith’s in.
I thought olive oil was original . . . and a nice touch for our sophisticated crowd. Usually, it’s mud wrestling . . . or maybe I need to get out more?
we did the olive oil wrestling thing last week smiley.
And nobody told me!!!??? Dohh!!!
“extra-virgin” olive oil no doubt. Perv.
“For those who thought that ‘Over the Top’ didn’t tell the whole story…”
i think we need some mashed potato wrestling; i’m still looking to avenge my loss in 2002. anybody?
If I can’t participate in the contest, then at least Meet Me Halfway:

Lys, you want to me my manager? i don’t know if I have an unfair advantage, being a superhero and all…
I would be an honor, 2o4! You defintely have an unfair advantage, but being I only back winners, that works out well for me ; )
And by “I” I menat “It”… please don’t fire me for typos…
Lys, as long as you can pronounciate your trash talk you are on staff.
I can’t describe how in love I am with y’all right now. Not only did we get an “Over the Top” reference, but we got a link to music video from it. Now thats class.
Also, who wins in a movie ballad smackdown: Kenny Loggins or Bryan Adams. I say Kenny…I mean, he’s got that manly beard….and Top Gun on his resume…and he’s not Canadian.
Kenny Loggins for SURE.
“Here’s you miracle! Stand up and fight!”
Notice Silmo didn’t mention me. That is because I have skinny little toothpick arms. But I’ll watch.
Shenanigans,
I thought you were a strictly jello sort a girl?
Exactly.
I’d pay to see ladies arm wrestling. That’s cheap entertainment.
Hah.. Sounds like some quality entertainment.
Who is in charge of bringing the scorpions?
According to the Wikipedia page for “Over the Top”:
“The arm wrestling champ at the time, Cleve Dean, was supposed to be Hawk’s final opponent in the movie, but it was changed at the last minute to “Bull” Hurley as the producers thought it would be too unrealistic if Hawk beat Dean.”
(Because we all keep track of that stuff).
Also, “John Wetton, lead singer of the rock group Asia, sang “Winner Takes It All” for the movie, but after performing the song, it was felt that his voice wasn’t “mean” enough, so the song was offered to Sammy Hagar, whose version ended up being the one on the soundtrack.”
(I think they meant “man” enough).
Ladies.
There is meeting scheduled for women interested. It is Thursday night the 24th @ Blue Moon Diner @ 7pm. This might be a good idea if you would really like to participate and want to know more about how it will be run. This is also a good time to be reassured that it really isn’t for the men folks. So don’t feel any pressure to “amuse” them.
C, you’ll do it if I do it? I only do embarrassing exhibitionist things in which I can be laughed at for more than 3 seconds. Spectator sport.
Well CLAW sure qualifies Lil.
Yes. What The Sian says is true, this is strictly a woman-only affair* … except for me. I’ll be starring as “Castrato, the Eunuch Referee”. (Unless I get booted by the babes … which is increasingly likely)
* Except for audience (right???)
In the alternative, I will dress in a white suite, drool on my shirt, and call myself Retardo Montalban.
Ummm…. that CLAW meeting conflicts with the Crush party… may I suggest a change of time/place? (pleeaaaase hold your meeting at Crush {so much more appropriate for bitches w/ bulging biceps anyway}) I’d hate to see villainettes left out
Oh Hips You have such a worried face
I think the meeting is a done deal. Lot’s of the ladies have arranged for babysitters already. Silmo can get you hooked up with all info post meeting. If yer willing to give him yer e-mail?!
might as well be the first to mention Inspector Gadget on the thread.
He already stole it.
Plus Sian, anyone can e-mail me for deets by clicking the “email me (Silmo Syrup) ” link in the post above
Fuuucckkkkk! I’m being mistaken for a woman again! Thats twice in one day! Maybe ‘hips’ wasn’t such a good idea?
cue parlie/thor
Now that sian thinks you’re a girl, you can participate and arm wrestle with the ladies . . . just don’t lose, sissy boy.
aw, I think the androgeny of hips is what makes it work… takes the edge off macho posts about hollow tipped bullets, etc.
MC you gotta do this
Alright I am in. I am wrestling, in all likelyhood it will take my self esteem down a notch just like singing karaoke, (seemed like a good idea at the time) what the hell I can’t remember any defeats anyway when i am three beers deep.
has been shopping for a troll-hair-wig for her manager lys, so she can assume the right Don King look
YES 2o4! Don King wig for Lys, but a mullet for you! So you won’t be intimidated by the ringers they bring in from Ruckersville. Is poker happening this week? I haven’t heard anything, but also haven’t asked…
Damnit, why are everyone talking about the Greene wrestlers like they have something us Albemarlians? CHeck the “this weeks assignment” post, #1
Hi guys, just got here, what’s up tonight, looks like i gotta lot of reading to do..hope there is nothing longer than a paragragh.
Excellent Caroline, thou shall be my trainer
I shall build my arm muscles purely lifting toddlers
hips is always a good idea.
two, I would love to be your trainer…..let’s work out right away…I’m coming over. (wink, wink, “work out”)
dude, the girls in that photo could destroy me… I have noodle arms and my wrists haven’t changed size since I was 12. But, silmo, since you insist, I’ll go out and buy some 5-lb weights and BULK UP!
mc, the girls in that pic could destroy ME! Maybe they’ll put you in a class with Lys and her wri-ceps? Sounds like it’d be fun anyway…
i am SO all over this.
free wine party be damned! i’m kicking some arm ass!!
MC, Hips, et al.: The girls in the photo are NOT in CLAW. CLAW woman do not “juice”, take male hormones, or pump iron professionally. The are your average c-ville ladies, well above-average actually but I’m biased.
hey there- can’t wait to be able to get some news! but olive oil is dated- here in SF we do CREAM CORN WRESTLIN’. go MOJO!
