Pretty sweet.
Check out what Mendelson had to say:
Congratulations Eric! You have worked hard and you deserve all the glory. I remember when we first met on Vegas. You have come a long way. I always said that you would be the one to break my record when we worked together. Well I guess I was right. Congrats champion!
Awesome!
Very awesome, good to see 716 can be beat. I was getting worried there for a moment.
