Oh, no question that it's against the rules to hike up the trunks and show their ass.
BUT, it's also against the same rule book to do that in bikini , but they all wear glorified thongs.
Plus, most of the drugs used are on the official list of banned substances, etc.
Did they break the rules? Yes. BUT with so many rules being ignored, it makes one wonder.
Yeah, but if 100% of the competitors onstage are doing this exact same "ass thrust", then you can bet attendance will be down so far that it's no longer worth it to even run the show. And that's not even counting the competitors that wouldn't attend either.
Their using steroids in confines of their own home doesn't disturb kids of other competitors. Shaking ass in thong like a stripper, well, lol.... let's just say any show that allows that would probably be outta business - tough enough getting people to pack a bodybuilding show. You allow that stuff, and people aren't coming back. Is it fair? I don't know. But it's what the promoter/judge said.
STILL, I'd like to see it in the rulebook, not just randomly called when they feel like it. That SHOULD be in the rule book. If it's not, I can see the competitor having a case there.
