Grappling for God

Every few years the state of Minnesota shows that it has a special relationship with...wrestling, of all things. Six years ago they elected for themselves Jesse "the Governor" Ventura, former wrestler and Hollywood actor. Ventura, a former Navy Seal as well, went on to become a political mentor of sorts for another muscle-bound actor (yes, I'm using that term lightly), Arnold Schwarzenegger. Now, the local MN paper tells us that the state known for its fierce independent streak, is home to a whole new sort of wrestling - Christian Wrestling. That's right, there's word of a whole new arena (ahem) for wrestling - the Church. Perhaps Ventura will provide some color commetary from the front pew.



kudos to kstrygg for this gem of a find!
