Olympia Tickets Sell Out

[gunnz]

Any way you think the finals will sell out?  I went the first year it was at the Orleans, bought all the expensive tickets to "supposedly" get good seats, and sat a couple rows in front of people that paid $50, while I paid $150.  Just thinking about buying them at the box office on Friday.  Any thoughts?

Not sure on how or if they ajust ticket prices at the last minute, but I would guess that you would be at a price disadvantage if you wait till the day of the contest.

Similar to hotel rooms here in town ...... Try to get a room on the weekend you need it at the last minute and you'll end up paying more.

I'd suggest that you simply call the Orleans box office and reserve your tickets now if the price seems right to you.

I went last year, and there were "Plenty" of seats that went unfilled

The organizers said it was sold out, but 30% of the seats were empty.
Were they all stuck in traffic???

Here is a personal observation regarding the Friday nite men's prejudging and the women's finals .......

From where I sat, the floor level appeared to be about 90+% full.

The upper section was almost entirely empty except for a few sections closest to the sides of the stage.

I didn't  attend the finals on Saturday nite so I can't offer an intelligent comment in that regards.

It is interesting to note that the general opinion of the fans immediately following the men's prejudging was. "Martinez should win it, but he won't!"

Most agreed that it would go to Jay regardless.

Most were somewhat disappointed by Ronny's condition and surprised by Ruhl. (He did look better this year!)

Wolfe and Gus and a couple of others came in better than most expected.

Those were just the general comments among some of the fans who were willing to speak their minds on the way out of the Arena.

But regardless of how any of us mortal men feel, I personally congradulate each and every contestant that was on that stage both Friday and Saturday nights. Each have gone were none of us (almost) have ever gone before.

My prediction for the '07 NPC Nationals ..... Curry
My prediction for the '08 IFBB Olympia ...... Martinez

Yea, Jude, Good possibility too! But with more time in grade and having paid his dues, it will probably go to Martinez.

Agreed only if Dennis doesn't make the improvements that he needs.  I think he is hungry for it and he will.
