This week's giveaway isn't a restaurant gift card or drinking vessel - instead, I have to offer you, two tickets to Steve Blackman MMA's Pennsylvania Fighting Championship II - coming to the Zembo Shrine on Saturday, Feb. 6.
Steve Blackman, if you aren't familiar with him, is a former WWE wrestler who now runs his own mixed martial arts (MMA) school in Harrisburg. If that doesn't ring a bell, you may have seen him in any of a number of area gyms as a personal trainer.
The first PFA was held in early November and was a huge success. Blackman's top students were matched against fighters from across the country for a near sold-out show.
Next month's event promises more of the same: 14 scheduled fights sure to impress.
To buy tickets, click here - or visit Garrason's Tavern, Savannah's on Hanna or Susquehanna Valley Harley Davidson. Tickets are $35, $45, $60 and $75.
Or -- to win 2 tickets to the PFC II -PLUS- a special edition Steve Blackman action figure -- simply comment below by telling me Steve Blackman's WWE nickname (I can't believe I made it through the post without giving it away as it is).
For more chances to win:
- Retweet this post on Twitter -- and come back and leave another comment telling me you did so.
- Friend Steve Blackman on Facebook for updates on events -- and leave another comment telling me you did so.
The Lethal Weapon!

I haven't watched WWF or WWE since the 80's but have paid a lot of attention to MMA and the UFC. I've retweeted the contest for everyone who does remember the Lethal Weapon!

I met I met Steve Blackman shortly after moving to Harrisburg. I was in Garrison’s when he walked in. I was sitting at the bar stunned. He walked past and noticed that my jaw was nearly on the bar. He said hello and I all I could say was “You’re the Lethal Weapon.” He responded: “So you’re a fan. Do you still watch?” I shrugged my shoulders and said no. “It was not as good as it used to be.” He was very nice and a really cool guy. The last MMA event was great I highly recommend it.
