To hell with the competitors.  What about those brave and weary souls who've lost countless minutes reading and responding to all the other threads about this show?

Reparations!   >:(

Does cancellation of B&A show = 'Victory' for Goodrum??
« Reply #52 on: July 03, 2008, 08:02:22 PM »

This is GetBig - the question must be asked and answered. 

Regardless of legitimacy, Goodrum will likely claim some sort of victory here.  Is he justified in doing so...especially considering the great expense he went to in order to get all those posters torn down?

Nah, I heard they hired some east coast guidos with a skinny fag as a boss and a G4P meltdown boy as a mascot to do the job.

Dont forget the "pre med ex felon"........  ;D

He hitchhiked and rode his bicycle cross-country to do it.

He's one of the guidos.  The other two are the skinny bald guy who lived in Mexico and dated BCH, and the short crude oilbag.  I believe all three are felons.

Dear Athletes and Officials,

After receiving several death threads within the last month and other series of negative things that have
what happened to us,we decided after carefully deliberating,to cancel the show. We do not take this lightly because we care about the Athletes but our personal safety is more important. Not only our personal safety, but as well of the participants. We consultat several people about our problem and finaly came to this dicision. I know I will loose our face over this and we put already $40000 in this show, which we will never get back but we still have our lives. No Bodybuilding show is worth to put your family or Athletes in danger.

All entry fees and ticket fees will be returned within 10 days.

Sincerely

B&A Production

I didn't have anything to do with the posters being torn down. I did however contact every sponsor of that the show had and Governer Schwartznegger's office to invalidate the letter.
So although I did have a lot to do with its downfall, The victory is for the NPC USA promoter who spent years building up the event.  He didn't deserver to have some asswipe try to literally upstage his hard work over the years and ride his coattails

Of course he isn't.  That's a stupid question and you know it.

I'm sorry, but this must be said.

This has made it 764321793 times harder for the next person who tries to do a show outside the box. All the talk about the NPC has a stranglehold, well you just sealed that deal Ben. I'm not impressed :-\

Gayer than incorrect usage when using uncommon words to try to make yourself seem educated.  :D

Gayer than making common words hard to understand, as you are wont to do

Gayer than you wouldn't sound like such a fag if you replaced the phrase "are wont to" with the simple word "frequently".  ::)

Hey - mad props to *any* GetBigger who can use 'wont' properly in a sentence. 

No one here believed that the amount of prize money being promised would ever be paid out.  The question is, did any *competitors* believe it would be? 

There are only three reasons for a show to be canceled this late in the game (and 'death threads' are not one of them):

1) Labor strike makes venue unavailable

2) lack of sponsorship dollars

3) lack of performer entry fees

Is it possible that #3 or maybe a combined #2-3 was what put this show on ice?
