I agree.
About the only worse place to have a show, from a financial perspective, would be Hawaii! 
Yes and no. Do you know that just about retail store, restaurant on the mainland that has a store or restaurant in Hawaii, that the location in Hawaii is there #1 location in terms of gross revenue. That includes, Costco, Walmart, Safeway, 31 Flavors, McDonalds, Taco Bell, JC Pennys, Starbucks, Subway, Jamba Juice and many many more. The mall which was connected to my host hotel was the #2 most visited single location in the U.S. behind Disneyworld for many years. The Ala Moana Mall gets more than 40 million visitors a year. Hawaii has been in the top 3 most wanted places to visit just about every year. Waikiki is less than 1 sq. mile in size yet has an average of 60,000 visitors a day staying there and close to 20,000 people living there. The costs are high here but the money that can be made is very good too. I proved it.
I had 6,000 paid ticket sales to my show. That is a NPC show not a Pro Show which should draw more people. Fair attendance from what we anticipated but all agree it was the date of the show that caused this. A car show with less than 100 cars draws 30,000 people. Hawaii is the perfect place to put on a major show. A show with many different things going is perfect cause it draws from allot of different demographics. The Japanese loves BB from what I here. They love the big guy. So, it my show happens next year, besides the local market which can easily support the show I am going after the japanese market vigourously. Also, in the 80's the biggest powerlifting meets in the world were in hawaii. The Budweiser World Record Breakers had more than 5,000 live spectators for a few years. So yes Hawaii is expensive but it support a pro show. Plus, even though Hawaii is very active and our nickname is "The Health State" we have NO professional sports here. So when something professional comes to town it is big. The Hawaiian Open, Triple Crown of Surfing, the Pro Bowl (which sells out EVERY year), the Lakers play here every year in some exhibition games and sellout every game. So when professional BB hits Hawaii it will be big. Again I predict it like I did last weeks show. And I was 100% correct on that one too.
And there is no way or reason for Sean to disclose any financials. What other show or anything does that. If he wants to be open like me and Mike and admit the loss then great but no way will a detailed official report be disclosed. And there was a loss just how much who knows but him, Jeff and Vyotech.
