Point is that King Kamali has made himself with his ability to market, whether you like it or not, one of the most spoken and talked about competitors in our industry. This guy had a persona, and everyone in the world knows about him. And you can be sured that as the Southwest Pro Show gets closer and closer, all eyes will be on Kamali. Like it or not, he makes the sport entertaining.

Every day, many others wonder how the hell can they get publicity from the boards, from the magazines, from the fans.

How funny would it be if you went to a show/expo and asked to get your pic taken with a pro then right as they think its picture time , you pull away and give them the finger, then take that picture  ...hahahah

That would be the best GetBig prank ever !!

Europa is the name of the Sponsor. 

now what am I going to do in the database at MuscleMemory ?

my rule has always been no corporate names in the titles.  I don't list it as GNC Show of Strength, just Show of Strength.

on the other hand, never heard of the Europa Corporation.

didn't understand Southwest Pro either, as Dallas is hardly in the southwest.

You've never heard of Europa?  One of the bigger supplement distributors in the US.

just went to http://www.dpsnutrition.net, where I buy my supplements.  No Europa listed.  Went to bodybuilding.com.  Not listed there either.

googled them (actually yahoo) and found their website.  so they seem to distribute other people's brands.  besides the fact that I haven't been inside a supplement store in 8+ years, why would it matter to me who's warehouse the product was in before it got to the mom and pop supplement store?

Europa is THE largest sports nutrition distributor.  They have four warehouses nationwide, and carry over 160 different lines.

No, I've never been to the Arnold.  I'd like to go one day for the expo, but it's always a matter of time and money.  when I have one, I don't have the other.

It really doesn't matter...The Corporate Sponsor know...Europa is the big dog.

since I don't sell supplements I would never be in a position to chose whether to use their services.  And I don't think any customer is going to say I'm going to buy my supplements from mom and pop store X because they use Europa as their distributor.   But my guess is their business model is probably hurting, unless they also supply web stores.  just as with book stores, brick and mortar supplement stores are quickly disappearing.

Vince maybe you should delete your post.  All it can do it have negative points against Europa.  I am prettysure they wouldn't want your endorsement out there like this.  They are a good company.  Please don't ruin it with you association.  My god man, don't you care!  Do the right thing and just say NO!

Again TimF...go to the web site...look at all the Corporate Sponsor.  Who cares if you buy or know who Europa is...that is not the point.  Everyone knew GNC and the Show of Strength...and what happen ???

The Corporate Sponsors understand !!!

1. This is an established show
2. 6,700 at the 13th annual EXPO
3. 2,200 at the Saturday Evening Finals  (400 standing we didn't have seats for).
4. And of course Europa.

And those are last years numbers with only 7 events, we now are up to 15 events.

This is the 3rd biggest show behind the "O" and the Arnold with over 100 Pro athletes, 1,500 competitors, foot traffic and Corporate Sponsorships...all the numbers that matter.

Their is a reason FLEX called it the next Arnold.
