Es sieht ganz so aus als würde es wieder eine gute Veranstaltung weniger geben. Hier die offizielle Stellungnahme seitens einer der Promoter :

"The offical number was in the 300k range. We did everything first class, we spent a fortune in advertising and then on top of that we got screwed by 3 different major people involved with the show (not the bb'ing side). We got royally fvcked by the convention center.

We did prepay the prize purse, when the athletes walked off the stage they were given the money on the spot. The only thing we can do now is sell our DVD, which of course has been a nightmare as well. It was supposed to be done before Dec 1st, still not quite finished.

If I do another show, it will not be a pro show. I realized real quick this isn't a sport. I had full page ads in M&F/Flex/Mens fitness for 4 months straight. We emailed over 150k people, put posters in almost every store/gym within a 500 mile radius of the venue. We direct mailed 70k people that subscribed to the above magazines. We spent 40k in local things. Outside of the arnold/olympia no show has ever had that much advertising.

Oh well, live and learn I guess. We put on a great show and the athletes loved it. That is what matters. I'm just not capable of doing something half ass"
