Hell yeah, too many.  3 or 4 a year, not counting ones that I did, since 1994.  Also went to the 1994 and 1995 Olympias in Atlanta.

So did any of you get backstage passes and have sex with any of the bodybuilders after the show?  ???

the funny thing is I prefer looking at still pictures to seeing videos of the shows, so I'm sure going to a show live would be even worse in terms of actually observing a physique.

Not to mention the fact that the shows are terribly run and looking at bodybuilders gets boring as soon as you habituate and they all start to look the same.  For me this takes about 60 seconds.  IF they were actually able to put on a good show (something like the musclemen of old who performed feats of strength and control, see maxalding for the later) it could be interesting for longer.

The Pros always have recognized me.  Some top amateurs as well.  They like me a lot with the exception of a few I am sure.

I'm not flaming you in any way Goatboy, but I am curious about why you'd be on this board so much with this attitude.  ??? You're older than most on this board I bet, yet you've never attended a single show?

And Rhino said that even in contest shape, he'll play bodyguard at the NOC.  Of course, I'll be sitting in "The Jungle", the reserved section for Rhino supporters, with niceRacq and other various groupees.

One of the IFBB contests that I have attended that I consider one of my favorites is the Ms Olympia & Fitness Olympia that was held in New York City in November 1997.

How many of you remember those two contests from that year?
