Title: Is the Olympia Live Stream Worth Paying For?
Post by: Matt on December 17, 2022, 03:41:47 PM
Took a 10mg Melatonin at 4:45am, but didn't go to bed until 8am, and woke up at 6:16pm.

Thanks to Getbig legend Kwon, I just found the UFC has a fight tonight.

Is the UFC worth paying the $70 CAD or whatever it costs? I don't want to pay for a freezing stream.

Is anyone here watching it? If yes, is it worth buying? I don't mind paying if it's a quality product. But joswift pointing out the press conference being done without tables and chairs this year show may have declined in budget.

Matt PM me and I'll send you a link to watch my live stream of the show for free.

Also CC Prime in and us 3 can have a conference call discussing the show whilst watching the stream. Sound good?

You can get it on YouTube. Or maybe a soccer site is carrying it tape-delayed.

PM sent.

I don't mind paying, but if it is blurry...then screw it.

I paid $98 CAD twice over for the May-Gregor fight, and both froze. I had to stream it in the end.  ::)

If you buy the PPV/Livestream, you have to pay for ALL the classes:

- Men Open Bodybuilding
- Women's Open Bodybuilding
- 212
- Men's Classic Bodybuilding
- Men's Physique
- Women's Physique
- Fitness
- Figure
- Bikini
- Wellness
- Wheelchair

And the Open isn't until last.

Should be mens posing routines first and then final callouts/places last.

What time is the Men's Open expected to start and end (Vegas time)?  Anyone going to be live-blogging/threading?

I'm wondering that too.

I read a thread on Reddit that said the Mr. Olympia promotion dedicated an entire team to taking down streaming links.

I don't mind paying, but not if it's already halfway through, on top of being blurry or with buffering issues.

It's 7:37pm in Las Vegas, and 10:37pm here in Eastern time.

Will I miss much if I buy it now?

If I buy the 2022 Olympia stream package, does it come with replays?

They have done a horrible job advertising the stream.

Have any Getbiggers purchased this? Can you watch it all, including yesterday's coverage, or must it be viewed live?

To be far, I don't think anyone cared much, outside of some Middle Easterners, and some Brazilians. None of the usual places that cover boxing, MMA, etc..... offered it this year, and most did previous.

Little schmoe / gay interest on Twitter.

Universal hatred of the stream quality from people that did buy it.

Apparently, you save $10.70 off the $69.99 fee if you wait until next year to watch it:

I just bought the stream. A blonde tranny is interviewing top athletes during the intermission.

Who?

No idea.

One Black guy who said he was an Olympia veteran [not sure which one of the 56 categories - I don't recognize him] did a front double biceps pose wearing his track suit.  ::)

It's only $15 more to purchase the Arnold stream, than it is to buy a Lou Ferrigno autograph.

So you have to wait until 2 or 3 am to see who won, if you're on the east coast? How stupid is that!!!

Last year (and the year before that), when the show was here in Orlando, you could watch the whole thing and be done before midnight.

They're still on Classic Physique, if this stream on YouTube with no sound is accurate.

Edit - Bumstead won Classic Physique again and the feed just got chopped.

For those watching on Twitch, just keep searching Olympia on it if a stream goes down. One will come back up in a few minutes. It's way too late for the Olympia to be on. Craziness.

No answer, but - meh.

The quality was not HD at all. It's OK, but not excellent. The lighting was not great.

I'd expect better from a bootleg stream.

They did a lot of things wrong this year that hopefully they will correct in the future.
