2006 Mr. Olympia Weekend September 30?
« on: January 21, 2006, 09:47:59 AM »
Heard that it has been scheduled for September 30, 2006.  Is this accurate?

Any idea of which hotel?

Yes.
Everything is the same:
Orleans Arena for the Contest
Las vegas Convention Center for the EXPO

and Ronnie Coleman "narrowly" beats out Jay Cutler for the title...   ::)
im pretty sure it will be another domination, but jay is certainly locked into second place. its the places after that that are interesting.

That's unfortunate!  Didn't they get the message that, at least for the fans, it was a failure!!

Hey all, this is my first time posting. I usually just read and enjoy the great comments.
I just got finished reading that mega thread "Ronnie Coleman & me, the largest man in the universe!" by Adonis. That thing is up to 35 pages.

I too would love to attend the O.  My girlfriend would rather us go to the Bahamas. But I am getting the feeling that this might be Ron’s last one and if it is I wouldn’t want to miss it.
Here comes the money shot

Yep.  I'm betting Darrem Charles will take home the title at the Bounced Check Invitational. 


Also Lee Priest is the frontrunner for the Contract Forfeiture Classic.

It's been moved to put some time and distance between Halloween, Nationals and Thanksgiving.
I think it is a great time of the year so people dont have to choose the Nationals in November, then plane tickets to visit family during the Thanksgiving Holiday.

Women All Friday evening including Figure, Fitness & BBing
Men All Saturday afternoon & evening only.
EXPO Both Friday & Saturday. ;D

Another great move by Mr. Pecker and his crew. Guess I'll be staying home for the 2nd year in a row.
