Tickets go on sale the second week of December.

last year the theater was half empty.  and while this year it is in a smaller venue, it's very unlikely to sell out.

now if they would advertise locally, such as in the LA Weekly, and Frontiers (the gay weekly), or pay someone $5/hour to stand outside of hardcore gyms handing out fliers, they could sell out.   but they (like all the pro contests) prefer to advertise nationally in the bb mags, and forget that most of the people buying tickets will be from within 30 miles of the venue.

Not everyone is as smart as you though, Tim.  I find that a lot of people who have money simply came from money and will always have money.  For example, any idiot can run a turnkey business which will be profitable all by itself with no extra work required.

I find a lot of local businesses where I'm from are ran by people who have no clue how to maximize the profitability of them.  If say for instance, Ryan Deluca of bodybuilding.com was in charge of promoting the 2008 Ironman, I'm sure it would be far more successful.
