RabbiVJ -  so wait....WV is gonna legalise it?  I thought the Director the WVSAC was like quoted as saying that he would never allow MMA in his state as long has he was director?



 He did say things like this--don't remember the exact quotes, but he was no fan of MMA.  Absurdley, West Virginia had no problem with Tough Man Events. 



Varney's symposium was in large part a response/educational tool to provide to the West Virginia commission and legislators.

"Yo senater...MMA is fucken awesum. dont be a doosh, legullize it NOW so I don't have to hitch a ride 2 Kintucky to watch fites an trane UFC!!!!"

 Good point--but as luck would have it, the VAST majority of those fans wouldn't be bothered to paste or click on the email in the first place.
