I want to start a MMA event at my college

All I need is a staff of doctors, a great medical insurance coverage plan, and about $5,000 for the use of a large enough facility with a ring.
Any takers?!
I'll split the profits once my organization goes nationwide and I start promoting collegiate events. Think about it now! USC fights Texas! Michigan fights Michigan State!

WTF is MMA?

Sorry, mixed martial arts.. freestyle fighting in a ring with limited rules.
Fastest growing sport in America, and it's huge in Eastern Asia. The business potential here is amazing, the number 1 group for watching UFC is males aged 18-24, is that isn't the college crowd I don't know what is.

And it costs suprisingly little to start off. I know quite a few people who would fight for free in order to get this off the ground. The money I'd need is for medical insurance, doctors to be in attendance, and a place to hold the event (which is the easiest of the three).

yeah, the hard part will be getting a crowd of people to pay for this.
And the hardest part that youre not even seeing, is the necissary licenses and permists that will have to be acquired to operate somthing like this as a business legally.

Yeah I know I'll probably have to go through hell with the Arizona State Gaming Commision. Wish I could get the school to lend me a hand in that, but I doubt the school itself would help me promote these fights.
The crowd is a little less hard to handle. They already have amateur cage fights every week in Phoenix that brings in a decent crowd. Not to mention the 60,000 kids on this campus alone (not to mention Arizona State's other 3 campuses) and I know how to promote things. Hell my roommate is a communications major and I know he'd be right there promoting with me.
Basically what I need is to get 10 or so people together that are willing to fight for free or for some easily arrangeable type of reward, and get some pairs training and whatnot going so they can actually put on a good fight.

Why is it that every up-and-coming sport these days is "the fastest growing sport in the nation!"?

I highly recommend it. Worked wonders for me. Now my dick has written two books and is retired.
