2005 World's Strongest Man Contest: Correction

by Randall J. Strossen, IronMind Enterprises, Inc. © 2005

IronMind® has just received an updated statement from the WSM Super Series that, in fact, Vidzis Raivis has not been invited to the 2005 World's Strongest Man contest, at least not yet.

Earlier, based on comments from a WSM Super Series official, IronMind® had reported that this invitation had been extended; we have corrected that report based on this latest statement.
