New Round at Mr. Olympia

[phyxsius]

Alright lads, forgive me if this thread took place before. I found out about the new round thingy a couple of weeks ago.

I got this from Milos's board (i've been inactive there for a while.. busy bashing people here at Getbig).. Apparently a proposal written by Bob


This round would have NO bearing on the final placings, etc. It's purely an entertainment round for the fans to enjoy, and get them involved.

This would replace the "challenge round" that was scrapped (thank GOD!)

Here's how it works:

All the competitors are brought out in a line up

all names are dropped into a bin, two names are drawn out at random

the two competitors pose down against each other for :30 sec (give or take, depending on the ent. value)

the FANS in attendance pick their winner by applause

winner back in line, loser...see you later.

the winners names are thrown back in the mixer, next round....2 names, etc, etc.

This would be done in an elimination format, obviously....

In a field of lets say, 24 guys...it goes from 24 to 12 to 6 to top 3 to a winner voted on by the people.

This whole thing takes less than 1/2 hour...

ANYONE can win, as the numbers are drawn completely random...because it's random, top names will be pulled out against each other (ex. Ronnie/ Jay) someone HAS to win/ lose)

Imaging if two "posers" happen to get called up (Melvin/ Dareem) and start out-doing each other...?

Pose-downs are anything goes...pushing shoving, one -upping, moving around (on stage)...always the most exciting part of a show anyways....

This eliminates the proverbial "same top 6 guys" posing down....again.

This spreads the wealth to 5 more competitors, who may not ordinarily get a dime....

The "underdog" could very wel win the whole thing, as the crowds love them...

No point system, no judges, no boring -ass same mandatory poses we just saw at prejudging...

It's a great way to involve the fans and get the place rockin...i think they deserve it after last years debacle.....

Peter McGough and Robin Chang are all for it......so whats the problem? BEN and JIM MANION. They're wrinkling their nose at it because they're gun shy that THEIR challenge round was a bust....

The money is not an issue....There is $50,000 available to use on the show.

so you're saying someone may out-pose ronnie? by getting a bigger audience reply??


so not happening.....

[brad_74]

Well Jay is from Las Vegas so I think he would win.  Really doesnt seem fair to me.

So what if Jay is from Vegas? It hasn't affected his placings so far............


This isn't baseball or football, there is NO homefield advantage.

[NeverTrustABlonde]

so the winner is automatically the guy who brings the loudest bunch to scream his name.....

sounds more like a popularity contest than bodybuilding show.....

[brianX]

This is shaping up to be a fiasco.

[phyxsius]

That's what you get by having Bob Chic as the rep.. Creativity has gone out of the window

You seriously think that any of these 'Pros" will be able to afford to fly in friends and relatives to cheer for them, at an event where the said Pro will be lucky to walk away with 5k?

Most of the people who attend show are:


Schmoes- Earl, Sandra, there for teh cock........

Fans- aspiring bbers, who look up to the pro............

Gays- same reason as schmoes, but at least they don't deny it...........

Other Pros- there because they need the exposure, or their sponsor is making them show up. Or they could not qualify and will sit and watch the show, wishing they could place top three sometime again in the future, despite their advanced state of Palumboism and lack of arms and growing gut.........

Here are MY suggestions for a new round:


The GH Gut Round

have EVERY competitor turn the side and stick out their gut as far out as they can..........

we can make it so that the guy with the biggest or smallest gut wins( depending on WHO you want to reward).........think about it.


The Robot Round

Have all the bodybuilders do the Robot dance. Let's have a dance off. The best one (according to crowd response) wins.


The Gluttony Round

Simple. Let the biggest pig eat his way to the prize.


Trash Talking Round

Could you imagine Ronnie talking smack to others? How much fun would that be.

"Eye's luv me some oranges n appels. tonite eye's gunna haf mee sum froot salad wif you fools, cause eye's hungree."

[phyxsius]

Here are MY suggestions for a new round:


The GH Gut Round

Ronnie will win this round


The Robot Round

With Tamali never be able to make it to this stage again, so the next would go to Darrem Charles


The Gluttony Round

If Lee is still with IFBB, then he might win with 5 buckets of KFC (special consideration to subsitute with pie)

Trash Talking Round

With Shawn's retirement, I guess the next best trash mouth winner would go to David Henry
