2010 Beat the Streets Wrestling Gala

Hey Everyone!  Very exciting news today.  We bought our tickets to the Beat the Streets Wrestling Gala on the Intrepid in NYC on May 13th! 

I couldn’t be more excited to go!  Seriously?  How can you not attend this event?  Okay, it’s $150/ticket, but that money will go into the Beat the Streets program too!  It’s a Win-Win!

Seriously, this may be the most exciting event in the history of wrestling.  Look at the list of people who are going to be attending this event:

Olympic Champions Cael Sanderson-2004 Gold Medalist, Kendall Cross and Randy Lewis-1984 Gold Medalist will be joining 6 other Olympic Champions Bruce Baumgartner, John Smith, Henry Cejudo, Doug Blubaugh, Steve Fraser and Brandon Slay.

World Champions and Olympic Bronze Medalist Les Gutches, Clarissa Chun-World Champion and Dan Cormier- World Silver Medalist and a two time Olympian will also be making their first appearance.

World Champions Terry Brands and Zeke Jones – National Freestyle Team Coach will once again be in attendance as well as 2000 Olympic Team Coach Greg Strobel.

 Lee Kemp, 3 time World Freestyle Champion and the 2008 Olympic Wrestling Coach.

Where else in this world would you ever see this group of wrestling people.  It’s insane! 

 And, to add to the excitement…

We just found out that there will be an awesome re-match of the 2009 149lbs finals where Caldwell upset Metcalf.  That should be crazy on the deck of the Intrepid!!!

Follow the Living the Dream Medal Fund on Facebook too as they will be updating us with news about the Gala.
