Last year, it was BPI sponsoring the event, and we all knew it. They chose not to this year, so Gifted Nutrition stepped up. It is kinda funny because not always are the winners from the IFBB. What does this event have to do with the IFBB at all? It is a bikini and men's model search. They are not sponsoring the expo, the are the title sponsors of this search. Some of these conspiracy theories just go all out. Amusing, but alas, whatever. If these people competeig in this get prize money, then they should not be able to go back to compete in the NPC, because it is against the rules, but they do it anyway.
