I've never had to "blame" my sources...the people posting here simply don't listen very well.
The numbers have never been "debunked"...they've been verified by numerous people.
Do you ever know what the hell you're talking about?
Doesn't seem so....I'd say it reduces your credibility...but then I remembered...you have none anyway.

You DID blame your sources for both mistakes.
You DID say there were 100, and yes, a much higher number being verifie by many people there DOES debunk your numbers.

de-bunk

–verb (used with object) to expose or excoriate (a claim, assertion, sentiment, etc.) as being pretentious, false, or exaggerated: to debunk advertising slogans.

Why? There seems to be little argument about how many people were in attendance...If filling a house with freebies is Wayne's plan...so be it.

Is it better to give away tickets to fans or to rip them off with hgh prices and shitty shows and venues. It seems the IFBB has chosen the later. Good company you work for.

I don't think anyone is questioning if giving tickets away is good or bad. I think it is being used to underscore the lack of support for the PDI's first show and question it's viability.

Just what were you guys expecting? I think the results speak for themselves....

I
I gave the show a 50/50 chance of taking place...I guessed wrong.

I gave Lee a 50/50 of actually showing up...I guessed wrong on that also.

What else is there to say?

You are batting zero.

The WWE gives away allot of tickets as does the NFL, MLBA and every other event. The funny thing is here is Wayne gave away some tickets to pack the house. Okay done. No cost to him and goal acheived. Now, Sean gave away a $30,000 Hummer, it did not improve ticket sales to the show and in fact gave it away at the expo which was free of charge. Cost $30,000. Now Chic my humble friend. Which scenario is a better business call.

Giving away a Hummer to attract more people isn't a bad move, and we don't know how many people would have showed had he NOT had it as a raffle...you dont know if it improved ticket sales or not.

Giving away SOME tickets to comps, etc, is common practice...giving away 1,000+ tikets when the theater holds 1500, is far from common....if I were one of the people that BOUGHT a ticket, id sure be pissed.

It shows what kind of interest level there is...not too good of a sign.

lol I know you guys like to break chics balls but cmon- The Pdi show was a fucking embarassment and if your sitting there claiming it isnt you either have some sort of interest (financial or otherwise) in the PDI which is making you completely delusional as to your importance in bodybuilding in general or you competed in the show...

Well said.

I am all for the PDI, breaking the IFBB's monopoly, giving bodybuilders's choices etc...but bottom line the physiques up there were no where near *real* pro caliber and the amatuer show was hardly a big fight for a pro card

Sorry, Bob, but spider-man is 100% right. You're either taking this "company man" thing to extremes, you just like to argue, or you're the dumbest motherfuccker on the planet.

And you got this number of 1000 from who. You have NO idea. Please don't tell us you know everything about everything in BB. Jeez you come up with some great shit. And the Hummer was one of the stupiest things to do ever. Maybe and just maybe if he gave it away at the show to a ticket holder. Someone that actually went to the show. Now that wouldn't have been to bad because it would have brought people into the show. But, no he gave it away at an expo that was free.

Hey I just found out from Chics source, the Olympia is giving away 3000 tickets. If I was one of the 55 people who bought a ticket I'd be pissed.

The Beef

I don't feel giving away the tickets questions anything. It's New York. there is endless amounts of shit to do there. Allot of free shit. But if Wayne gave away tickets and the people showed up then it was a great thing. They didn't have to show up. So obviously they must have been interested. I bet these same people who got in free this year enjoyed themselve enough to go next year and pay. The goal of any promoter is to fill the seats. Hell even the Emmys and Academy Awards have seat fillers. As a competitor I woudl want tosee as many people as possible out in the audience. It makes for a better show.

Bobby boy,
show some self respect and post about things you know.
You have proof for you statement about over 1,000 tickets for free, I guess.
If bad mouthing will enter Olympics you'd be running for a medal but guess what? Your bosses, let's mention just a couple: AMI (there are rumour you are on their payroll) and JM, will never thank you for wasting your reputation.

Just stating the obvious based on the pictures.

1,000 freebies is an estimated guess. 500 to Dr. jack and another 250 to the Hari Krishna's that came to see Sri Chimnoy...thats 750 right there...I'll assume tyhere is another 250 in comps...sounds about right.
