Title: 2006 Mr. Olympia Weekend September 30?
Post by: gunnz on January 21, 2006, 09:47:59 AM: Heard that it has been scheduled for September 30, 2006. Is this accurate?

Any idea of which hotel?

and Ronnie Coleman "narrowly" beats out Jay Cutler for the title... ::)
im pretty sure it will be another domination, but jay is certainly locked into second place. its the places after that that are interesting.

That's unfortunate! Didn't they get the message that, at least for the fans, it was a failure!!

Post by: SteelePegasus on January 21, 2006, 02:30:37 PM: Hey all, this is my first time posting. I usually just read and enjoy the great comments.
I just got finished reading that mega thread "Ronnie Coleman & me, the largest man in the universe!" by Adonis. That thing is up to 35 pages.

I too would love to attend the O. My girlfriend would rather us go to the Bahamas. But I am getting the feeling that this might be Ron’s last one and if it is I wouldn’t want to miss it.

Yep. I'm betting Darrem Charles will take home the title at the Bounced Check Invitational.

Also Lee Priest is the frontrunner for the Contract Forfeiture Classic.

Post by: Shawn Ray on January 21, 2006, 10:43:46 PM: It's been moved to put some time and distance between Halloween, Nationals and Thanksgiving.
I think it is a great time of the year so people dont have to choose the Nationals in November, then plane tickets to visit family during the Thanksgiving Holiday.
Out,
S. Ray
Women All Friday evening including Figure, Fitness & BBing
Men All Saturday afternoon & evening only.
EXPO Both Friday & Saturday. ;D
