Anyone with Pull Contest Ideas?

[Boris]

I am considering proposing the idea of a deadlift contest to our athletic director. I think it would be a lot easier than a push-pull and less chances for anything to go horribly wrong.

I'm currently playing around w. the following ideas:
*dual meet or invitational (w. team scoring or total weight lifted by team) or include surrounding community as well?
*one platform (perhaps multiple flights)
*Raw (belt allowed) or equipment allowed (probably won't have many Metal DL suits regardless though...)
*proceeds to go to charity or weight room facilities
*DVD sales?
*t-shirt sales or free t-shirt w. entry fee
*trophies, certificate, something else?
*staff participation? (I probably won't be in it though...)

I'd love to hear any ideas you might have on the subject. Also, the school's mascot is the J-Hawk. If you have any thoughts on a name of the contest, I'd love to hear those too.

Thanks,
Boris

Sounds great! Maybe you could get a guest lifter,like oh I don't know? Ali Huston?
