Gold, Silver and Bronze 4-dimential custom NY State Arm Wrestling medallions and certificates will be awarded in all weight class categories and the 2015 New York State Strongest Arm Most Valuable Players for both men and women. "The 38th Annual Empire State ‘Golden Arm’ Tournament of Champions is New York City’s oldest, most prestigious sought-after title, since our beginnings in 1977,” said Gene Camp, founder and president of the New York Arm Wrestling Association. “This event is very exciting to watch because of the captive cheering audience rooting for both their favorites and underdogs. The New York State Championships is loaded with top strong-arm talent that demonstrates awesome feats of brute strength, exhausting endurance, grimacing, verbal intimidation and miraculous demonstrations of shear power and will to win.” Contestants and teams competed locally, from the five NYC Boroughs, Long Island, Upstate NY, and others will travel long distances, from other states, Puerto Rico, and countries that have long practiced arm wrestling as a sport, including Canada, Russia, Turkey and other nations. Team Puerto Rico won the Team Championship and scored the most points.
