Sami Al Haddad is in town to compete at the Night of Champions.  Yesterday evening, he was at Bob Bonham's Strong and Shapely Gym checking things out.  Here's thread with a pic of him at the gym.

They're not athletes!

Strong and Shapely...what a bad name for a gym.

[Hedgehog]

Strong and Shapely...what a bad name for a gym.

That's what I thought too.

I've told Bob Bonham he should rename it, he's probably just awaiting the right time to get on with it, you know, doesn't want to steal the spotlite from NOC or the Mr O or the midterm elections...

Power Plant - that should do the trick.

BTW, Bob Bonham is a pretty cool sounding name IMO, so no need to change that.

Friends:

My friend Wayne DeMilia has a Pro Bodybuilding Championship (The Night of
the Champions) this Friday and Saturday in NYC - Town Hall Theatre.  For
almost 30 years the NOC has been an N.Y. Institution with the strength &
power community.

This year is the first time the Pro Division is introducing serious drug
testing via Harvard U and I am strongly supporting Wayne's effort.

We are working to get young people interested in the sport again and Wayne
has offered to me 500 Tickets to the shows either Friday or Saturday for
any groups, organizations, church group, etc., that could fill those seats
with young people (any age up to late teens).  It would be great if young
people could look to strength training as something exciting again.

If anyone from any groups you work with could benefit from this, call Wayne
DeMilia at 845-638-9290.  Tell Wayne you were referred by Dr. Jack
Barnathan and he'll make whatever number of tickets you can use them
available to you.

Send me an e-mail if you do take advantage of this opportunity I am sharing
with my students and colleagues.

Stay Strong!

only a few tickets left is how every show is promoted

if its half full it will be a success

As the IFBB athletes rep don't you think you have got enough to do with taking care of your own people?  Why then the concern about what the PDI does or does not do or the seat they do or do not fill???

-keep it real-

[Chick]

Just "keeping it real"....


BigMC-

Half full of free tickets is a success??

unfortunately any bodybuilding show thats half full is a success nowadays

thats what you should be addressing chick

[Chick]

I guess it depends on how many "half" make up...

If the theater at a bB show holds 10,000 seats, and it's half full of PAYING customers...yes, I would say the promoter did very well with 5,000 in pocket...

If the theater only holds 1,500...and 1,000 are comps, I'm not so sure I would call that a success.

The last Olympia I was at had maybe 2000 people in Mandalay.  That thing has to hold 8-10,000.  the place looked empty...

[Spike]

drugs tests??

like the $295 blood endocronolgy tests or the $20 piss tests???

who pays Harvard U and for the lab work if the show is such a bust???

what substances are banned at the NOC??

[Chick]

The last Olympia I was at had maybe 2000 people in Mandalay.  That thing has to hold 8-10,000.  the place looked empty...

The Olympis generally draws between 5-6,000...couldn't tell you how many are comped. Last year, we drew over 6,000, and expect to draw over 7,000 this year.


240-

You make it sound like I made it up...facts are facts. If this were posted in reference to a IFBB event...you would've been all over it like white on rice....


If that is Waynes strategy...God bless him. I believe it tends to show the interest level...

Can you give any reason for posting this, other than to embarass Wayne?

[Fury]

Everyone goes to the Olympia to see which Sequin-studded blouse Chick decided to wear.

[Chick]

Why would it embarass Wayne?

I'm, sure he has a game plan like the one you outlined...this aint his first rodeo.

It's posted as fact...giving a false impression to athletes that may be considering joining this organization, wouldn't be in their best interest now, would it?

you are doing the athletes a disservice there im sure they are switched on enough to decide for themselves
