Wisconsin promoter having an NPC natural and a regular NPC show as a joint event

[wisconsinBB]

There is a promoter here in wisconsin who is holding two events on the same day, same time.  He is having an NPC natural show, then a regular NPC show.   Its the most retarded thing I've ever heard of.  Thoughts???

Meh.


They're just trying to get as many people in the building as he/she can. Remember, this is bbing, so crowds are small to begin with.



Regardless, I wonder how many juiced up POS will do the natural show, just cause they have no integrity.

There is another promoter in wisconsin who actually does a very good job promoting his shows.   He had 60 competitors and 500 people in the audience for the night show at his show in may this year.  Its not a huge turnout but it wasnt bad for a local show and it filled the auditorium.  500people X 20 bucks = 10g's for the night show, plus another 2500 for prejudging.  He is teaming up with another promoter to run a show in milwaukee on nov.3 if anyone from the midwest is interested.     I just think having a natural and a non tested show at the same event pretty equals drug users and non drug users.  It looks terrible.

I don't see nothing wrong with that, in a perfect world ,the naturals do the natural show and not naturals do the other, some people are going to cheat ,even in a 100% tested show,  what is retarded is having Bill Willmore guest posing in a natural show

My point is when you have a natural show, then...............a regular show, the implications are that the regular show is ok with using illegal drugs.   For people who are into bodybuilding, its no big deal. For the 90% of the crowd who is just there to support a friend or family member and could give a fuck less about bodybuilding,  the instant question becomes why wouldnt they just drug test everyone?

I understand your point ,but like you said 90% of the crowd don't give a fuck about bodybuilding ,I 'dont think they care about who is using and who is not,they just go to support their family or friend .

Okay, so lets say someone's family is not aware of their drug use, and they don't enter the natural show.  Everyone who doesnt do the natural show might as well put on a sign that says "I USE STEROIDS"   It just looks bad.  I was there last year and had 4 or 5 people who were never at a show before ask me what the difference was.   I had no idea what to tell them without saying "those guys use drugs and those guys dont"

I think it's an AWESOME idea. No one would show up at the natural show--so the promoter would lose money. That's why there aren't very many good natural shows.

To me, it's no different than having mens, womens, and masters ddivisions.

I'm talking in general, you are talking about personal cases.

Is Kevin T promoting a show w/ Phil Heath and Quincy guest posing? I got something in the mail about it. I'd go but there is an IL show the same day.

Yes, Kevin and his wife stacey are promoting it along with the promoter of the NPC Fox Cities show that was in the spring.  Its in milwaukee and It should be pretty cool with quincy and phil both guest posing.

 I hope it works out for them. I would surely attend if I didn't have so many friends competing at the Rockford, IL show the same day.
