Where can one view the OLYMPIA for free??
« on: December 14, 2020, 11:29:24 AM »
The Pay Per View is $59. It seems to me I've seen free livestreams of this event before.

Why are these pay per views so expensive?  Most people seek live streaming or just watch a rebroadcast video put up the next day because of this.

The stream is barely tolerable when free... They really are doing their best to kill off the Olympia completely...

For $59 I could almost get 3 Ferrigno autographs!

LOL $59 when it struggled to get viewers when it was free?

Schmoes going to schmoe I guess. You don’t want to be the only one at the water cooler on Monday after the O who didn’t see the show live.

It doesn’t matter bro, it’s well known you can’t judge a show by pictures anyhow. You have to be there live to see the differences.

The way to revive it would be to put it on cable television so they could find an audience.  Hiding it on pay per view does nothing to grow or even maintain the sport.  The IFBB and NPC need a new marketing team.

WES, When you say that "Pro bodybuilding is dead" .... are you referring to the "Pro Bodybuilding" contest only ... or does it refer to the entire IFBB organization in general?
