IFBB Grand Prix shows - Don't mention the Low 10k

[Meltdown]

Fuk there is so much CRAP on this board but if you mention IFBB and Money Boom GONE.Why DELETE a question Chick? it was a genuine question.With everything costing more when is the IFBB going to get promoters to increase that 10k 1st place and 1k for 5th at Grand Prix shows.FFS Nite clubs give away more for a Door Prize.

This is a legitimate concern.  With the rise in fuel prices and airline tickets, who is going to pay their own way to a 2nd tier show and leave losing even more money than before. 

[Bix]

It's a f..kin joke, they were giving that same amount over 10 years ago, hahah today's pros are making less than yester years, hahahahaha

[Meltdown]

This thread won't last long before being Deleted but they will tell you the shows pay more now.Bullshit Grand Prix 10k for 1st and 1k for 5th.WOW that's a real Pro sport payment 10k how many people have seen bigger prizes at a local raffle or a Nite club door prize.

Bro' they don't "compete" in this "sport" for money, fuck no. They do it for the love of the iron! The "fans", the thrill of gay men screaming for you! The horror of it all! And lets no forget all of the "alternate" routes to making cash in the IFBB, so many opportunities....just look at DA and "hank woods" mentor and guide, "Sami the Black Smith". Thats all the evidence you need right there.

The IFBB just pretends that inflation does not exist.  Having the same prize money they did ten years ago is in fact paying significantly LESS prize money now than they did back then.  But they just tell the "athletes" that "hey, we're paying the same as we always were", counting on these mental giants on steroids not to have a clue about inflation and how it works.  They're probably right.

Yes you Gotta laugh that these so called IFBB Pros make as much for a Pro Grand Prix Win as the local door raffle.

The irony of your Getbig handle is not lost on me.

[Meso_z]

only 10k for a pro show? 

[The.Giant]

In before deletion of thread mocking the ifbb's pathetic payouts.

[Disgusted]

These guys are not competing for the money. They are competeing for the title. They would do it for free so the amount means nothing to them.

[Matt C]

How does one put money into these shows?  E.g., $1,000 extra for the best posing award or something along those lines?

The Fantasy of thinking that you matter without showing that you can walk the walk.

Welcome to irrelevancy territory.

You obviously can't or otherwise wouldn't mind proving it like all other getbiggers who matter.

You're done. Next.

Do the trainers and 'guru's' do it for the title?

Everyone in the business would love to see more money being handed out to the athletes but unfortunately running shows is not as profitable as everyone seems to think.

I've attended most of the Grand Prix over the last 10 or 12 years and for the most part the ticket sales and sponsorships have declined which is the reason there are far less shows now than in previous years.

Ultimately the fans determine the prize money, not by complaining on a forum but by buying a ticket.

How about losing the ugly physics, the overflowing drug use, the gay costumes and so on, then maybe, maybe some more heterosexuals would show up on these "Grand Prix".
