Post by: 240 is Back on August 20, 2006, 08:24:27 AM: 6th year that the show has been here.

The banner was very much real, I'm afraid. If I had photochopped it, I would have given it some cooler fonts.

Post by: Mufasa on August 20, 2006, 08:43:33 AM: LOL!

Then I guess that is a pretty sad banner... :-[

I would have gotten a pic with him. Didn't see him afterwards. He came onstage to present trophies to the heavyweights, but i didn't see him after that. Would have been a heck of a pic tho!

Ouch!!! got me..LOLOL. Well, I didn't think he was a little "homo" until he ordered his lunch. As a senior editor for MD which is the hardcore magazine of bodybuilding..let's say I was pretty disappointed...LOLOLOL.

He's a pretty hardcore guy. I'm guessing it was a very rare steak and maybe a couple beers. Am I close?

She probably complimented Romano on his ability to put away half a raw cow, while eating 5-alarm chili with a whisky chaser.

I'm pretty sure I know this Romano guy. Complete badass. This HAD to be his meal.

So spill it. What did Romano order for lunch?

Post by: Special Ed on August 20, 2006, 10:17:24 PM: My guess is Romano ordered Greek sausage medium-rare, choked on it, and spit up some vanilla pudding.
