Three reasons to pregame your at CLAWstin 11:

1. Keep yourself from blowing all your money on regrettable weed-print parachute pants that seemed cool "at the time" by giving it to Save The Food Austin.

2. Bank some feel-good vibes that will keep a smile on your face while you're waiting in the porta-potty line for a freaking hour.

3. Get your party started at Empire Control Room & Garage with some badass bi***es behaving badly for a cool cause.

Get your $10 ticket in advance at tinyurl.com/47vkzkhz and you can skip that line.

Heads up: You gotta be masked and vaxxed or tested. (Read our COVID safety policy at bit.ly/3BZfQBB)

For our new members of CLAWstin Nation, here's a little explainer on how we do things. You pop out your plastic or your cash. We give you some of our (probably) legal currency. You give it to the wrestler (or wrestlers, if you're kinda loose) you want to support. The wrestler who raises the most money gets the glory. Save The Food Austin gets a new fridge to store even more fresh food they save from being wasted so they can feed hungry people.

Yeah, you're gonna get shaken down, but you're gonna like it.

Meet our final wrestler! At #8, it's Miss Information!

CLAWstin Nation, we’ve got big news from the world of ladies’ arm wrestling! Former national champion wrestler Editrix is back – but she’s, um, changed.

While working as a fact-checker in a laboratory in WuWu, China, the Mistress of Correction was the victim of a terrible lab accident that infected her with an experimental virus. Once infected, she transformed into a powerful bioweapon: Miss Information, able to spew eight hundred and eighty-eight untrue statements per minute and prone to explosive outbursts.

Miss Information knows who your friends are. She knows what kind of music you like, what makes you laugh and how you vote. She knows what you say you like and what you secretly crave. She knows what you fear and exactly how to make you fear it even more. And she knows how to get your money for Save The Food Austin

So if you’re pretty sure “it’s all a conspiracy,” pony up the payola at her fundraising link https://www.givepulse.com/fundinguser/139

Wrestler #7 is bringing the claws to CLAWstin!

Made up of everything sour and s*x power, Kitten KaBoom is a ferocious half-kitty, half-death clown. She may look sweet but she LOVES to scratch.

This cunning kitty puts her energy into making naughty dreams come to life because she believes all kitties have the right to play safe, eat well and purr, when they want to.

But Kitten KaBoom's not here to play. She's been training for the past ten years with ninja fantasy creatures and fire breathing acrobats, making her a currently undefeated champion (except for the two times she was disqualified for biting).

If this fierce and fun kitty makes you want to play, send some scratch to her fundraising link https://www.givepulse.com/fundinguser/137 so Save The Food Austin can feed more hungry people.

Wrestler #6 looks sweet, but we advise you not to turn your back on her unless you want to get smashed into little, itty-bitty crumbs of sadness.

Fueled by sugar and a hefty pinch of spice, Cupcake Smash is everything naughty and nice. This dainty-yet-dangerous diva is ready to whip her opponents like buttercream frosting. Cupcake's contents are under pressure like a can of whipped cream ready to explode all over the arm wrestling ring. Want to know what's really inside that center?

If this savage sweetheart gets you on a sugar high, help her bring in the bread for Save The Food Austin at her fundraising link: https://www.givepulse.com/fundinguser/135

People, wrestler #5 is da bomb!

In fact, she’s the Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-Cherry Bomb!

This energetic fashion model from Sweden spends her time fighting for women's rights along with her gang of paparazzi. When she isn't in the arm-wrestling ring, Cherry Bomb likes to practice making faces in the mirror, running on her treadmill in high heels, taking selfies and seeing how many shades of lipstick she can wear at once. But don't let your guard down, this fashion queen has tricks up her sleeve and will stop at nothing to help feed the hungry.

Cherry Bomb’s dearest wishes are for world peace and that each and every human being can know what it feels like to put their feet in a brand new Uggs...the boots not the sandals.

If this model with a heart of gold and guns of steel makes you want to ask for her autograph, show your support at her fundraising link www.givepulse.com/fundinguser/131 and help her help Save The Food Austin.

For wrestler #4, all that glitters is bold!

Meet Moulin Bruise! This burlesque bombshell and her rag-tag troupe of dangerous dancers are always looking for a good time being bad. And by good time we mean bumping and then grinding the competition into submission. They're hell on heals and ready to tackle any obstacle to fighting the good fight for Save The Food Austin.

If this queen of the strikes your fancy, show your (sadly unrequited) love at her fundraising link https://www.givepulse.com/fundinguser/136
