Why would I care? There were plenty of people there to attest to the size of the crowd...

I've seen bigger attendance, I've seen worse....looked to me to be about 3/4 full at the height of the evening. Given the line-up...it was OK.

Ever come out of your basement to attend a show, Dearth?

It amazes me how those who didn't even attend the event seem to know BETTER about what went on, then those who were there :o
In general, it seems that the Arnold and Olympia are doing well in terms of ticket sales and sponsers, etc.
But, some of the other pro events are not doing all that great. The old Night of Champions was a huge event.
You know I am a big fan of "other" pro events, but it seems many of them are starting to falter a tad.
Here is my 2 cents:
NPC shows doing better than ever:
Nationals and USA ( numbers up in both)

IFBB pro:
Olympia and Arnold doing great.
All other pro events seem to be doing ok, but not selling out and attracting new fans?

whats the problem chick? i thought you said bodybuilding was at the height of its popularity?

I guess its tough to eat your words when you are humbled here so often.

Chick...I was in the upper mezzanine....I'd say 85% full...very good crowd. I thought the turn out was great.

where did you and your life partner go for dinner?  I mean that is what you call them, a "life partner," right?  He's not really your "husband"

The USA did have a record number of competitors last year, around 400 I believe.  :-\

Why do you exist? Why are you on a bodybuilding forum? Do you like bodybuilding? Doesn't sound like it. Do you not have actual interests to spend your time on, not just disinterests? It must suck to be you.

Yeah, usually the winner would go on to win or place high at the O.

My best memory was Momo beating Dorian.

Man, use to love that NOC...sad to see that pathetic lineup this year  :'(

Were you there that night? I was the MC at that show and it was one of the highlights of my career in bb.
It was a great lineup and huge event. Sonny was in the placings and I met Bev for the first time. It was also the first time I saw Yates live. Those were the days....

Hell no...went with the pizza w/ procuitto and eggplant, and of course, the calabrese for an appetizer
