It's bull to have an over 35 class, and for the 50+ guys it's bull to turn pro anyway...

So it is obviously about more revenue by more entery fees and tickets sold. I get it.

They should give a pro card to the teen national winner.  It would be more relevant than giving a pro card to a 50+ year old.

Why?  A pro card is not necessarily about building a career; it is about setting a goal for yourself and reaching it.  Every year schools award bachelors degrees to people in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and 70s--and the students pay serious tuition bills for the privilege.  Again, it is not always about building a career.  If a relevant career is what mattered none these guys would be in bodybuilding; they would be doing something more, um, relevant.  ::)

It's a 1 out of 100 shot at being successful once you get a pro card, but at least the teen winner has hope.  A 1% chance of being relevant is better than the 0% chance a 50+ year old will have.
