Welcome to “Punchlines and Pints,” the MMA podcast where we dive into the beer-soaked brawls of 2024 with the one and only Jeffrey Ramirez, BeerLeague promoter extraordinaire!   Host: Alright, folks, it’s been a wild year for BeerLeague, with their “Just Some Fights” series taking us across the globe. Here to break it all down is the man behind the madness, Jeffrey Ramirez! Jeffrey, thanks for joining us!   Jeffrey Ramirez: Thanks for having me. It’s been a helluva year. We’ve had knockouts, submissions, and a lot of spilled beer—mostly from me, not the fans.   Host: Let’s start with the series. “Just Some Fights” brought us five events from L.A. to Helsinki. What was the standout for you?   Jeffrey: Oh, gotta be “Just Some Fights 2” in Vegas. Best rating, wild fights, and you know, there’s something magical about combining MMA with an all-you-can-eat shrimp buffet at the afterparty. Plus, $125K in ticket sales—people were throwing money at the cage like it was a strip club!   Host: What’s with the L.A. card only pulling $74K in revenue? Were the tickets free with a six-pack of beer or something?   Jeffrey: Close. We overestimated the power of “hipster fight fans.” Turns out, if it’s not a coffee-infused IPA or a match involving a unicyclist, they’re not showing up.   Host: Let’s talk stats. Fifty fights this year: 46% ended in knockouts. Do you think your league has the most power punchers in MMA right now?   Jeffrey: Without a doubt. Tony Halme and Jack Sullivan with two KOs each—they’re like wrecking balls in board shorts. One of them landed a punch so hard it broke our beer keg sponsor’s logo on the cage.   Host: Ouch. And submissions? A solid 20% there too.   Jeffrey: Yeah, Gabriele Ghiotto stands out. Two wins, one of them a sub. The guy’s nickname should be “The Boa Constructor” for how he ties people up. He even subbed someone with a modified wristwatch choke—I didn’t know that was a thing.   Host: Neither did I. Now, looking at attendance, St. Petersburg pulled in 5,000 fans, while Helsinki capped at 4,090. Any insight there?   Jeffrey: Two words: “vodka culture.” Russian fans know how to pre-game, in-game, and post-game. Helsinki fans were great, but they’re more “sip a pilsner and clap politely” types. Different vibes.   Host: Fair enough. Let’s talk about 2025—BeerLeague shot up to #15 in the world rankings. What’s next?   Jeffrey: Crowning champions, baby. Every weight class. None of this “random fight night” stuff. We’re getting belts, fireworks, maybe even a bear. Bigger arenas, more beer, and enough action to make your head spin.   Host: Are you saying you’re bringing a bear to the cage?   Jeffrey: We’re in talks. Let’s leave it at that.   Host: Alright, last question: What’s your advice to fans who’ve been following BeerLeague this year?   Jeffrey: Stay drunk, stay rowdy, and buy the PPVs. And remember: in BeerLeague, everyone fights for glory and a lifetime supply of craft beer.   Host: Well, there you have it, folks! Jeffrey Ramirez, the man turning beer and brawls into a global sensation. Cheers, Jeffrey!   Jeffrey: Cheers! Now, where’s my pint?   That’s it for “Punchlines and Pints.” Stay tuned for 2025—bigger belts, bigger fights, and maybe, just maybe, a bear.

Hello everyone, This thread is to gauge interest in joining the upcoming season of Camp League. For those unfamiliar with the league, please refer to the following post (specifically the first page) for all the details about the 2024 season: Camp League 2024 Official Thread   Currently, the prize pool stands at $3,650,000, thanks to the generous donations from the 2024 season's winners. I believe a $100,000 entrance fee is fair, but this is open for discussion. If you’re already familiar with the league or have participated before, let me know if you’re interested in joining again this time around! Feel free to share any questions or suggestions—whether it’s about altering the rules, adding new ones, or anything else you'd like to see. I’m planning to start the draft on January 4th, giving us a 5-6 day window to complete it before the first UFC event of 2025 on January 11th. Cheers, and wishing you all a Happy New Year!

I'm up for this. As a side note there are several really good artists you could use, but I'm gonna recommend Rocket as his stuff has been really top notch.
