The Masters Olympia 2000 was held at the Roanoke Convention Center, & it was full.  Keep in mind that there were several events that weekend, including pro women's shows & a national qualifier for the NPC.  So it's difficult to say that the Masters O alone was well or poorly attended.

There's a new pro masters men's show being held at the Atlantic City Grand Prix next year.
