Woodland Hills, CA: July 27: At this year’s Joe Weider’s Olympia Weekend (October 13-16) the Friday night program of October 14 will showcase a unique evening of Beauty and Muscle. Beauty in the show-stopping shape of the Figure and Fitness Olympia events, and muscle in the rugged form of some of the world’s top pro men bodybuilders battling for a place in the next day’s Mr. Olympia finals.
The latter event will be called the Mr. Olympia Wildcard Showdown and is another exciting innovation by American Media Inc. (AMI) and the International Federation of Bodybuilders (IFBB), co-promoters of the Olympia Weekend.
The Wildcard Showdown constitutes a last-gasp qualifying contest for the Mr. O contest, in which the winner not only goes forward to compete against Ronnie, Jay, Gunter and company 24 hours later but also captures the winner-takes-all cash prize of $10,000.
This eleventh hour chance to qualify for the Mr. Olympia contest underlines the IFBB/AMI combine’s commitment to grow the sport and to add even more excitement and thrills to an already packed Olympia program.
To see who will be the last man standing in the Wildcard Showdown book your ticket to the event now. Full Olympia Weekend ticket details are available at 2005olympia.com. Continue to check that site and Muscle & Fitness and FLEX magazines for Olympia Weekend updates.
The Mr. Olympia Wildcard Showdown is open to IFBB pros who finished in the top ten of their last IFBB Pro contest. Applications must be received by August 15 at which time the promoters will announce the selected line-up. Competitors finishing high at the Europa Super Show on September 17 and Charlotte Pro on October 1 will be considered for participation. All selections are open to the promoters’ discretion and those wishing to enter the Mr. Olympia Wildcard Showdown should contact Robin Chang at Weider Publications, LLC, Tel. 818 884 6800.
