Look into my eyes — Barbers Shane Patterson and David Aviles practice for the upcoming arm wrestling competition sponsored by their boss, World Famous Barber Jon. The family event will be held at 6 p.m. on Aug. 18 at the El Dorado Saloon, and will benefit the SPEAR.
Some very fit guys will pair up, hold hands and stare into each other’s eyes during a special competition at the El Dorado Saloon on Saturday, Aug. 18.
The event sponsor and master of ceremonies is the flamboyant and world famous (by self-proclamation) Barber Jon Rivera, a local character so colorful that he keeps a cape and top hat near his barber chair.
But this event is no song and dance. The inaugural World Famous Barber Jon Open Invitational Arm Wrestling Competition pits mano-a-mano in a testosterone-fueled test of prehensile limb strength. Men of any gender are welcome.
The mitt-mashing will benefit Suicide Prevention Education Action Resources, a youth suicide prevention program. Founder Vivian Hurtado-Figueira said she’d only recently met the garrulous barber, but was impressed by him.
