Dan Solomon said tonight that he was. If so, that's a HUGE name to enter who would win it all. Many people liked him to win the Ironman and he's definitely due for a Pro Win this year.
Lift/Shawn- can you guys confirm D Henry will be doing the show?
-
YES!
-
It's a 6 month lease on the Hummer. Personally, I wouldn't mind a 6 second Hummer.

It's the toy Hummer that they borrowed from Jay Cutler

Has it been established that the Hummer is 100% paid for tax and license included. Or is it just leased like most contests do. What dealership donated it or it was bought from. I have to go back and look at the poster.
-
Shawn said a few months back that the Hummer will be given away. It cost $29k and the winner will keep it.
I even took a screenshot of his statement, as it was a pretty big announcement that it wasn't a lease.
-
vyo-tech sucks balls. the hummer is probably used- bought for dirt at a dea auction shawn intended- he had a 25% off rat coupon. he he ROFL ???
ROFLMAO!
-
how much is gas per gal. in denver colorado?
-
From what I understand it is beig given away to one of the fans. I truly think this money would have helped get more competitors if it was used to up the prize money and pay for the pros expenses. I was wondering do other pro shows pay the expenses of the pros. I am sure they get per diem.

I'm a big fan of Dave's but he can't beat Phil Heath if Phil's in shape.

There was supposed to be a raffle.
Anyone with a ticket to the show would then have a chance of winning it.

They just don't know how to handle money

Dave looked good in his last MD spread with Lee. He could do it.

can anyone confirm Shawn doing the show he seems to be on the colorado pro posters
-
Yep, DH is doing the Colorado Pro

He won't be doing anything.... perhaps selling his trunks via auction on the stage..

Yeah you seem qualified to be giving out advice on how to run a show. ::)
The H3 is being given away to one luck fan. Anyone can win and it is their's to keep, it is NOT leased. I believe they are responsible for taxes, but who is going to turn down a $30k vehicle because they have to pay $5k in taxes? The prize money is already the highest behind the Olympia and Arnold.

Good move, you could have used the money it cost for the Hummer to increase prize money or at least pay the expenses of the pros and leased the Hummer. Good call. How much is the exact prize money and the breakdown. highest behind the ASC and Olympia isn't saying much. You make it sound like you are giving away allot of cash, but in reality about $40,000. That doesn't say much for the IFBB that has been around for 40 years to have shows that give their competitors a decent cash purse or even pay for their expenses. When you are a pro you should get certain things paid for and definitely travel and hotel and per diem are included. If not then what is the difference between an amateur competing except for the prize money. They are treated no different. Good call again Other than that have a great show ::)
-
Shawn,
Can you confirm if Chris Cormier is doing the Colorado Pro like he said he was going to in his column in MD ?
-
Well chris needs to qualifie for the O but maybe he'll do the shows in september. the montreal pro and athlanta I think
-
The dealership is MEDVED in Aurora, CO
Give em a call it is Bought and Paid for, State Taxes too!
Winner has to pay Sales Tax, which is customary for any Prize Winning even on Game Shows.
No one has to spend a dime to win.
Winner will be announced at the Free EXPO Saturday at 5pm
Winner must be present!
The car was: $32,600.00 out the door with a few upgrades!
I was in CO over the weekend with Jay Cutler & his wife for the show in Boulder, CO the fans go to see the car and it will be "GIVEN AWAY" which is a reward for the fans support!
Along with other prizes: Flat Screen TV, Note Book Lap Top, IPods, Cell Phones, 4 Some Golf Package, Ski Lift Tickets, Rockies Base Ball Ticket, Morton's Steakhouse Certificates, Cheesecake Factory, Nike Town, Home Depot, Ulitmate Electronics, Spa Treatments, Tickets to the Mr. O, Palms Hotel Resort & Casino plus Dinner for 2 and more! :o
Keith, you'll never be satisfied until I add and ALL YOU CAN EAT event to my show.
You'll be in Hawaii running to the board to check out the results while the Fans who appreciate the sport will be in Colorado reaping the rewards of their support and the Athletes will be in line to receive the most Prize Money being given out in the 2006 calendar year!
Whoomp..........There it is! :-*
-
It's ironic that you're making fat jokes about Keith, pot may I introduce kettle.
-
Sorry, Love food too! ;D
-
Keith, you'll never be satisfied until I add and ALL YOU CAN EAT event to my show.
LMAO ;D
-
Sounds like a great event Shawn. It's good to see more major shows be developed. It forces shows like the Olympia that have been going down the last few years to hopefully get back on track.
-
Sean Baloney, please dont stand in judgement of what the Fans who support the sport receive. :-\
You'll never be happy so why bother. :'(
What is happening in front of your eyes has never happend before in our industry yet you try to stand in judgement, while I dole out the 3rd Largest payday this year?
We are not trying to compete with a show that is no longer in existance (GNC)
The show is history, sadly I might add.
That being said, you wouldn't appreciate what is being done here if you came up with the idea.
So please, isn't there another Costume Show on TV you should be auditioning for somewhere other than here on the BBing Boards?
-
lol... Go back and read the post, Shawn GAY as the DAY is long. I wasn't judging anything, and actually supporting your show. I just wanted to know why a fan would leave with 30k, and the winner of the show 25k. No need to get all defensive and sensitive. Are your panties pink today? :-*
Sean, may I suggest psychotherapy?
I swear to God you are the most passive-aggressive individual i have ever encountered in cyberspace.
-
That's awesome.
Imagine if instead of paying the Friends actors $1M per episode, they paid us to watch.
Hmm . . . paying the audience to watch. Sounds like a tactic that would make sense for Jack London . . . especially since he can afford it.
-
Baloney lay off the Test yo :-\
The show will be recognized as Fan Appreciation Day ;D

Come on Shawn, it's the Tren not the Test, he's "cutting"!!! ;D

The funniest thing is how he makes fun of me and I made it to the top of my sport he never did. At my best and he at hs best he couldn't have lasted a few sets with me and thats a fact. It's great that now after a serious injury I provide him with the ammo to attack me. The only thing is that he is weak and his jabs feel like feathers. He has no creativity. Very cocky for a guy who has never put on a show. And in reality his posts and his attitude display his true colors. I have met many many many professional athletes in many different sports and between him and Chic I have never seen two of the most unprofessional and embarrassing represntatives ever. WIth every post they disrespect BB and the fans. I am having a blast watching them both slowly meltdown. It shows in each post. It's funny as hell. It's too bad cause both of them could have been just regular assholes.

Ironic Meltdown. You melted down while discussing others' meltdowns.
-
Interestingly enough Shawn you sound like an ass but I do hope your show goes over well. Anything to pay the athletes and reward the fans deserves praise. Good luck and good night.
-
Well, I guess that is a compliment coming from you. ::)
Peace,
S

Hey SHawn, leave Baloney alone. He's an "expert"....
HE'S GOT:
5 BLUE STARS!
-
On his GAY "expert" suit!
-
Shanw why do you post the pic of Ali knocking a guy out. Is that supposed to be you on the floor after a day on Getbig or after your show. Is that Lift Stud knocking you out for getting him into this mess. I don't get it.
-

I take it you didn't like American Gladiators ;D

There were some hot chicks there. 8)

Back-handed compliment to be sure but more of a vote of confidence in what will happen at your show. I hope it comes off great and the fans are happy as well as the athletes. Thats all. ................For the record we've never met, you just soooounded like on ass.
-
I'm actually impressed you guys are giving away a real H3 title and all as opposed to a lease deal. If I wasn't going on vacation, I'd be going to Denver to claim my wheels. Great city and great people there. And maybe the winner of the H3 can drive Phil Heath home afterwards. Tell Jeff Taylor I said Hi.

Will VYO-TECH have any 14 year olds at the Colorado Pro to represent the company? Maybe they can go after the 10 year old market as well, Lord knows those 10-14 year olds need fat burners and testosterone boosters.

Give it up, every post you make shows how jealous you are of shawn ray. You are melting down left and right ::)
-

from what i hear, he's tops in the synthol pee-wee league.
-
I don't think he has synthole in his shoulders anymore, he shouldn't get mark down for that

You are right!!! syntho"le" is the Levrone edition which is no longer available. He uses straight up synthol!!! LOL!!! ;D
-
I take it you didn't like American Gladiators ;D
or maybe he saw the "let's look at a giant closeup of a black man's ass" thread that sean started on another board . . .
-
Shawn, I see Markus Ruhl is on the flyer is he competing in the show. Thanks and Good Luck.
-
Two things to report:
- Jason Arntz poses no threat
- Algebra has a crush on the expert
-
RUHL is not competing he is waiting until Sept. to compete
-

Agreed. I kinda like your posts onlyme, but you need to give it a rest in your battle with Shawn. Shawn may not have won the "O", but thirty years from now he'll still be talked about as one of the greatest in bodybuilding circles. Whatever your chosen sport was (powerlifting?), I doubt you will be as revered or have as strong of a legacy.
-
why rip on shawn for trying his best to help bodybuilders? Hes putting on a show and there is a good deal of money involved. Its clear the winner isnt taking home 100g's but his efforts dont need to be disrespected.
