If you don't know my buddy Sol Neelman, you should. He's got mad skills. And he's one of the most creative and adventurous people I know. Driven mainly by a constant pursuit of his passion - weird sports. Just to give you some idea, in the last few months alone, he's photographed both a sumo school and dog fighting in China, the Islamic Games in New York and a Lucha Libre match in Mexico.
Now me, I believe whole-heartedly in collaboration and community. So whenever I hear something that might be of interest to anyone, I make mention of it. Like, for instance, I knew Sol was going to be in California for a week or two, and told him if he was anywhere near San Diego, he should check out this dog surfing competition I just read about somewhere. So he did.
Then today, he surprise me with a $20 iTunes gift certificate, and the honor of being the first Toss-Sol-A-Bone-With-A-Weird-Sports-Photo-Op Contest winner. Yay!! So, if you've got any tips for him of weird sports, that result in him making a picture, you could be the next winner. Just be warned... kickball, urban golf and the Redneck Games... he's already been there, done that. Wife carrying, cheese rolling and chess boxing are already on his radar. Anything else might be fair game, so if you've got something good, just drop him an email at sol@solneelman.com with your tip.
