Arm wrestling comes to Lebanon

Posted

Arm wrestling fans can look forward to a match with major contenders right here in Lebanon this June.

Drew Bishop is one of the main organizers for a local arm wrestling club. He is now working on a tournament to be held at Boat Town Brewing at 6 p.m. June 8. The public is invited.

Bishop said he became interested in the sport about six years ago after he decided to give up bodybuilding.

“I was looking for something else to do competitively and I got turned on to arm wrestling,” he said.
