MMA Countryside, IL OCT 7???

It looks like there is a fight card promoted by Shidokan fighter Eric Schneider and Gilbert Grappling on Sat Oct 7 in Country side. I saw a poster but couldn't stop to take down the info.

Who's fighting, where, when, how much etc?

there was a thread up about it but i didn't recognize
any of the fighters names.

"MAC -Midwest Absolute Challenge is having it's first show since 1999, at the Park Place of Countryside Banquet Halls in Countryside, IL on October 7, 2006. See local fighters like Chase Beebe & Mike Kelly. For ticket info call 815-356-0454."

"Chase Beebe vs Aaron Jamieson, Mike Kelly vs Chris Fleurestil, Cody Madison vs Jay Ellis, Sam Jackson vs Norm Alexander, Joe Schlotterer vs Chris Chickenero, Josh Niemi vs Mike Jacobs, Jay Little vs RD Tondini, Jon Lister, and other local fighters Russ Janca, Shawn Najm, Tom Belt, Bryan Matkin, & more."

Thanks - any more info is appreceiated but that should get us there

Is anyone else going to this one?

I'm gonna check it out!

Russ Jenca is a tough kid. he'll be in the big show some day

I'm going, always up for some mma action.

Russ Janca is definately an up and comer, he's only 18, this kid is slick.

Monte, will you be there?

Ok - I think I feel dumber that at any other time on this board. That is pretty low.

I called # above and was told General Admission was $25, at the door I was charged $35. Perhaps I'm expecting too much, but I thought I'd get to at least sit down for $35...nope! standing general admission. Maybe 150 people in attendance. 8 fights were mostly good. $3 16oz. beers were a pleasant surprise. Pretty good event, will have to bring lawn chairs next time.

Gilbert Grappling was not the promoter. It was Curran and Scneider.

I think they tried to put on a quality show but so many fighters canceled at the last second that it was a nightmare. How did the final with Chase go?

Thanks gokart.

I had a bad feeling about that fight. I am glad Chase didn't end up hurting the guy.
