It was just announced on a Dutch forum that Ed van Amsterdam has received a wild card for the 2009 Olympia. A good friend of Ed said that everyone who saw Ed backstage at the NY Pro was very impressed by his conditioning. He just didn't look as hard on stage bacause he wasn't tanned properly. He got 13th place.

Imagine Ruhl winning the O, with Ed Van Amsterdam in second place, and Jenny Lynn going home with the figure O

I'd laugh my ass off.

I highly doubt that they would give anyone this year a Special Invite to the Olympia with a lot more shows to come, it is way too early.

If Ed Van Amsterdam wants to compete in the Olympia, he will need to qualify like anyone else.

I'm afraid this is for real. The guy who posted it is a long time friend of Ed and also the owner of the supplement company Performance which is sponsoring Clarence DeVis, Regiane DaSilva and Khalid Almohsinawi. He said Jim Manion himself had informed Ed about this wild card. The topic has now been deleted as requested by people in de Van Amsterdam camp. They didn't deny the topic starter had given false information. I'm thinking it probably wasn't mean to be made public yet because it doesn't look right (because it's not).
