The Nose Bleed Seats Presents: The First Annual NBS Awards. This awards ceremony will be hosted by Chad and Shad Talley and bring together everyone on the Central Illinois wrestling scene. This monumental event will give you all an opportunity to prove that as a region you can come together as professionals and give each other the respect you all deserve. I feel that all thou some of you may have different views on pro wrestling you all share the same passion, respect, and admiration for this industry. Some of you may not agree with that statement and I ask that you attend this event and discuss some of your different opinions with others in Central Illinois wrestling. I think that you will find the same thing that I find and that is the opinions, the wants and the needs aren't all the different.
At this ceremony there will be two inductees into the Central Illinois Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame, a Lifetime Achievement Award presented, and ten NBS Awards presented. Everyone involved in Central Illinois wrestling is welcome at the ceremony and admission is free. Again I can't begin to explain to you how important I feel this event is to the Central Illinois wrestling scene as a whole. I strongly encourage any and everyone to come and be apart of this event. Whether it be to support your friends and fellow wrestlers on there nominations or make new friends and contacts.
The awards ceremony will be held at The Brickhouse Club and Restaurant, 888 W Eldorado St
Decatur, IL 62522. On February 24, 2008 beginning at 6:00 pm. The Brickhouse is a bar and restaurant. Drinks and food can be purchased. If you need any more info on The NBS Awards or The Brickhouse please feel free to contact me at thenosebleedseats@yahoo.com or at www.myspace.com/thenosebleedseats
Several weeks ago I sent out several e-mails to various members of the Central Illinois wrestling scene. Promoters, wrestlers, and some fans. I asked these individuals for there nominations in the following categories. The response was overwhelming. A huge thank you to all of you that took the time to help in this process. I am sorry to say that not everybody that was nominated made that final cut of nomination. I strongly feel that five nominees in each categories is a perfect number.
I personally want to send a congratulations out to all the nominees. You should feel a great deal of pride in this accomplishment. Getting these nomination means that the promoters, your fellow wrestlers, and fans overwhelming said that you stood out from all the rest in the following categories.
