Title: GoFundMe Thought for Bob Chickeriello
Post by: NaturalWonder83 on January 07, 2022, 02:58:03 PM
Is this true Bob was fired?

If so, is there any thought to starting a GoFundMe for him?

I’ve heard many different reason as to why the decision was made (if true?)

Some say he was out of touch with the younger generation of fans

Some say he was too abrasive

Some say his age made him unable to properly do his work

Or should he be rehired to his former job?

I would say he would do better in a gym setting-Like as a global head of marketing and gym design for Golds

So maybe pr and mc was not the best fit for him-he tried and definitely put in some work on selected stuff over the years

Bob will be ok, Gene. Sharkskin suits never go out of fashion. Chick's Snappy Sprezzatura Emporium will keep him comfortable for years to come.

Or he could return to his theatrical roots. Bob would make a great Phantom of the Opera. Probably doesn't have the beef for Beauty and the Beast tho.

Bob use this video of your interview with Dave as a lesson for thinking before you act. You appeared very frazzled in this video-You need a handler of sorts. An aide would not be enough for you-you need a handler that will prevent you from doing any more damage

That failed reality show where you did the voiceover with the bad microphone usage
Or where you sat to watch PJ Braun squat, or your Martian film, or your junky apartment treadmill, or your laxative egg whites, or your captain crunch costumes, or your lunatic ramblings on here

The last time I saw Bob, I ran into him at the Aria (not the Mirage rm 7 by the ice machine) in Vegas during my bachelor party on Halloween 2019. He was with a couple of dime pieces (trannies?). Of course I mentioned Getbig to him. He said something to the effect of, “What are those crazy guys up to on there?” I was also dressed as zombie Dale Earnhardt while talking to him. He probably thought I was on quaaludes.

Bob/Dave,

Just let me know what you guys need and I can do the IP cross checks. That's easy enough. If Ron is already working on it, then fine.

Also, for what it's worth, you guys are entertaining on video. No offense, but you sound like the typical old school Italian guys that talk shit on each other. It's genuinely entertaining and you guys should find a way to do this more often and monetize it.

Rusty's still giving the fans what they want -

And inspiring them to be artistic -

Looks like he’d mop the floor with Chick. If I was Bob, I’d fake a medical episode to get out of this one

Gone are the days when Chick's armpits were considered the warmest, tightest, and most muscular in the industry. He's a mere shell of himself :(.

The winners in the Chickster losing his lucrative IFBB gig are shareholders in the Mirage Hotel.

It'll also give a nice boost to the Ice Machine Vending industry in Vegas.

This interview is so entertaining.  Bob's true nature is really getting exposed here just like he got exposed on Getbig.  Hopefully one day he will gain the courage to venture back to the Thunder Dome.  Good times were had.  :D

There's absolutely no reason that I could think of for Robert not come back and post here.

To be honest with you all, Bob is a really nice guy. Part of the issue many people likely have with him is that they've mostly gotten the showman side of him. I was buddies with his brother growing up (Rochester folk) and Bob even back then was a solid human being with good personality. I remember Bob even was a high school security guard at one point and some of the faculty (which were old buddies) were really fond of him.

I'd like to see him come back and share with the crew here. He's a wealth of knowledge regarding the industry and has a world of insider secrets that would knock your socks off.

Gleeful ghoul Dave Palumbo explains how Chick was fired (11 - 20min in, with 11 - 17 being the meat of the subject) -

.

Funny things of note - 1) Palumbo's Chick impression, 2) Chick made things worse by threatening to strongarm the promoter according Palumbo, 3) Palumbo implies that Chick is getting old, and believes doing a full day of announcing is below him, and perhaps he'd be better announcing for smaller shows. 4) Both Palumbo and Aceto imply that Chick is lazy, and maybe it's time for new blood.
