Anticipation for the the Big Event
Next month I am planning to attend Thunderdome V, a wrestling event to be held near Taunton, Massachusetts. I been invited to the owner's property on several occasions and have wrestled five of the confirmed participants in the past. The owner, Joe, is a great host and I cannot thank him enough for his generosity in hosting this event (especially as his body doesn't want to let him wrestle as he should). I hope to wrestle many new opponents and perhaps even find a few guys willing to put on boxing gloves and go for a few rounds.
I remember the first couple of times I went to a wrestling meet, I felt a little awkward and rather shy at first. I was often the largest person there and not everyone was willing to wrestle me due to the weight difference. What if everyone else (except the people I knew) were so much better that they would put me to shame? Fortunately I always had one person, my friend Rhodyraybo, who would be happy to wrestle me all day long, so I wouldn't be just another "spectator in a speedo."
Wrestling events are not for everyone. Some men can only wrestle on a 1-to-1 basis. I know a couple of guys who could travel to the site without great difficulty and make a positive contribution, but cannot be convinced. The dynamic is different in a group, and for some men for whom wrestling is more of a fetish or a turn-on, they may never be sufficiently comfortable to enjoy themselves. The property is not completely secluded from the outside world and there will undoubtedly be photos and video taken. There should be tents pitched at this event, so those who do need to get away for a "private session" will probably have the opportunity to do so.
When I go to meetups these days I don't feel nearly as uncomfortable as I did the first couple of times. I look forward to meeting new wrestlers. I always appreciate the opportunity to revisit my old opponents. I also look forward to swimming in Joe's in-ground pool! I'll probably be a bit overenthusiastic and push myself too hard, too fast. As long as I am not forced to leave early due to family, there should be plenty of me to go around.
This event promises to have many, many more gentlemen in attendance than any event I have ever attended before. Of course I would love to fight everyone who comes and is willing to wrap up with me. The event is being held over the weekend and I may only be able to attend one day due to family obligations, so I hope to get in as much wrestling and fighting in with as many people as I possibly can. The month between me and the event cannot go by quickly enough!

It was awesome! My expectations were met and more. I wrestled quite a few guys, swam in the pool and shared in the camaraderie and bonding unique to men brought together to wrestle each other.
