Major Harris Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Anyone going to watch this? One of the guys is very local to me. I went to high school with him and still see him quite often in the community. I am very anxious to see how America takes to this guy. http://www.amctv.com/shows/game-of-arms Show premieres tomorrow, 10:00 pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I like AMC but I'm not really into reality shows. I'll probably be taking a pass on this one unless it gets some buzz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forehead Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 He might have to go through some issues getting to know his son and all, but my money is on Lincoln Hawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chew Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 meh, i might tune in for the first episode. i've seen plenty of broken arm vids via arm wrestling, and I'd rather not see another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'll be watching. Arm wrestling was a big thing in all the bars in AK during the late 60's and 70's (teens & twenty's for me). Used to do it a lot. Wild times around Anchorage and Fairbanks back then (pipeline boom). Drinking age was 18, pot was legal, many types of bars, numerous forms of strip clubs, many open 23hrs a day, everyone making buttloads of $$$. There's some very serious dudes into that stuff. The show could be good---it's interesting enough as a sport of power and technique, the contestants and the crowds usually include plenty of "colorful" folks (some just crazy). Of course, this take is ALL dated by about three decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
