The Arnold Classic Men's Bodybuilding Competition on Pay Per View, in 2004? Yes, ladies and gentlemen, that is true. This year, all the unlucky ones who won't be able to get into the sold out Veteran's Auditorium in Columbus, Ohio, will be able to get the show live, starting at 7pm Eastern Standard Time, or 4pm Pacific Standard Time.
And who wouldn't want to see Jay Cutler, Chris Cormier, Dexter Jackson, Markus Ruhl, Gunter Schlierkamp, King Kamali, Craig Titus and others battle it out in an incredible show. Add to this Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvestor Stallone, and this should be one of the most exciting shows ever.
Now keep in mind that most of the time you only can order this event one week out from the broadcast, so don't despair if you don't see it. Call your pay-per-view system to make sure it is on. The announcer will be Joe Amato, and his two colorful commentators will be 6-time Mr. Olympia Dorian Yates, and bodybuilding's most honored emcee and premier journalist, Lonnie Teper.
From an official press release, which states: The Pro Division and Physical TV are happy to announce that the 2004 Arnold Classic will be shown live on Pay Per View Television on Saturday, March 6th, at 7:00PM eastern time. The event will be shown on the following systems in the United States and Canada. Click on each to go to the correct Pay-Per-View link.

We hope to increase the number of viewers this year with the addition of Direct TV, which goes to 11 million homes in the United States. We are also taking the step by having two events on PPV this year, the Arnold Classic and the Mr. Olympia finals on October 30th.
As other PPV systems are signed for this broadcast, we will keep you updated. If the event is not being shown in your area, call you local cable or Satellite Company and ask them how you can get it.
