Thanks for the help. I think it was GAHunter95, but it wouldn't hurt to have other options too. We got the ok to put together a Cola Warrior in Georgia. What we need now is a location. The place would need to have room for the obstacles, range, and primitive camping at a minimum.

Even though I have given up on the thread asking for help, I've still been working on those projects. There was no deer hunting last season, there was no spring 2014 shoot, there was no fall 2014 shoot, there is no spring shoot for this year, but the good news is that I am finally getting them close to being done. The sink has been finished, the 100 yard berm is completed, the sub-panel is in, 2 circuits finished, 2 more are roughed in. About 3 more circuits to go after that. Glockfan68, KavonTN, Bob, Tok762, 400North, and some friends from my day job came out and helped. (If I missed anyone - it is not intentional - let me know and I will add you to the list.) Doing something like the Cola Warrior is a whole new list of things that would have to be done, not to mention the expense. |

The good part about Cola Warrior is it only really requires the obstacles be built and have enough space for people to run and shoot. Its a very austere competition. |

Doing something like the Cola Warrior is a whole new list of things that would have to be done, not to mention the expense. The costs associated with it would come from donations. If you look at the site for the main Cola Warrior, there really isn't anything. There is a trailer, a conex, and a long pullup bar as far as anything even approaching permanent on site. I heard you have at least one conex on site. Add a 2x4 and a 2x6 and you've got at least 2 obstacles. The obstacles are tire drag, conex (hand over hand down it then over it), handstand walk down the side of the conex on a wobble board, horizontal bar, then pushing a big tire over a pyramid. Everyone except a few that crash on the floor in the trailer sleep in tents, trucks, or wherever. At East, there is nothing permanent. They have a few obstacles where you drag or throw stuff, a horizontal rope, and a vertical rope. People bring canopies for cover and sleep in tents or at hotels in town. |

When did Cola Warrior become a real thing? I always thought it was just a bunch of guys running around, shooting stuff, and trying to make themselves puke... It's been growing. Everybody that gets involved loves it (except CouchCommando). It's gotten so big that there aren't enough spots at Liberty even if just limited to previous runners, so Liberty will become like the championship next year. The running around, shooting stuff, and puking still applies. ETA: For the record, as of right now I'm the only Georgia Cola Warrior that qualifies for a spot in the championship. We need more representation at Liberty! |

I made 15th at CWE last year, and would have finished higher had I gotten the chug. Even one more soda would have put me in the top 10. I'm dying to be a top 10 next go round.
For those of you who don't understand the appeal, let me spell it out for you. You will hate it while you are on the course and you will push as hard as you can to beat your buddies. It will make you see how weak you are, how you can't shoot after you've run a half mile and your muscles are all on fire from the obstacles, and the chug will devour almost everyone. You can ace the obstacles, but if you can't chug and shoot, you can't win. If you can chug but not shoot or run, you can't win. You will make friends for life because only a CW vet can understand the pain and suffering that is the course. It is awesome, addictive, and the entry fee is putting your pride on the line. It will give you a reason to take better care of yourself and train harder. The day after CWE I wanted to get one going in Georgia. |

Like he said, it tests you and your gear and motivates you to get better. I can honestly say CW was what motivated me to drop from 215lbs to 183 as of this morning. I am now the same weight I was when I got married 13 years ago at 22 years old. |

You still have a pretty good chance to get in if you put your name on the standby list. Lots of people will drop. This is the last year that the one in MS will be open to everyone. It's going to be like the championship next year and will be limited to top-10 finishers. |

Is this just for arfcommers or anyone who wants to sign up?
Is a GA CW just for GA peeps or anyone willing to drive here? Does the timer stop with the last chug, or when the puking stops? are the obstacles standard for all cw's? How many groupies (non competitors) show up? How many people camp for the duration? Do you get one run, or more? Where do you find Peeps in the off season? Wait.... I may not want to know. Lol
Did I see that right? Rusted Ace with an ~8 minute time!? 
Do peeps and diet coke have the same reactions as Mentos? |

Anyone that is willing to show up. Does the timer stop with the last chug, or when the puking stops? The timer continues until the person finishes or says they're done. If you puke during a can, that can is done and you get the full 5 minute penaly. You can continue to the next can if you want. are the obstacles standard for all cw's? No. You can pretty much do anything you want. There is a caveat to that. The designer of the obstacle has to be able to complete the obstacle. If they can't, they are banned. This prevents the competition from turning into a "LET'S MAKE THE HARDEST CW EVER!!!!" where no one can complete the course. How many groupies (non competitors) show up? That is up to the amount of space available and the landowner's consent. Spectators aren't really allowed at Liberty, but they are in Appomattox. There just isn't room at Liberty. It's packed with just the runners. How many people camp for the duration? Most Do you get one run, or more? Just one run is official. I guess you could run again if there was time, but I'd have to check. Where do you find Peeps in the off season? Wait.... I may not want to know. Lol Amazon
Did I see that right? Rusted Ace with an ~8 minute time!? Yes. Rusted is not really a human. He's a cybernetic being sent from the future to raise a Cola Warrior army.
Do peeps and diet coke have the same reactions as Mentos? Not really, but you would think so with some of the eruptions that happen. Answered. I think I'm going to have MFF close this thread and continue in this one. http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_8_35/577942_Interest_in_a_Cola_Warrior_in_Georgia_.html&page=1 |
