I was going to, but Im burnt out of that show. Went the last 3 years in a row. Crowded as f*ck down there too, especially where all the supplment companies are at. Night show is awesome.

i've also gone for the past several years but i feel like i'm too close to my show. its like 3 wks after the AC. i just wouldnt be able to enjoy myself the way i have in the past. and yea, i agree IM, the trade show is packed. it takes a lot of patience to move up and down the isles, especially on saturday. friday isnt bad and sunday is good for getting close out prices on the supps the vendors dont want to travel back with.

This will be my first year going. I'm not going to the show though. My schedule won't allow for it this year D:

Not really. You will literally be on top of one another in the vendors area. Especially if the pros are there signing autographs and taking pictures. Its ridiculously overcrowded. The night show is the best thing there. Great restaurants all over the place by the arena. I chilled there, and ate, and relaxed there..away from the crowds.

the show has grown to a ridiculous size, its like 5 days now. i think the event has outgrown the venue

yes, it has outgrown the venue. at least the expo has. they built the convention center for the arnold and now, i'd agree, it still isnt big enough.

i'll tell you guys, i'm starting to really feel bummed and jealous with all the buzz, this being arnold week. i wish i could still be there. i'm thinking about going to the Mr O this year. i haven't done that show yet.

I'm going to try to get there early and hopefully look around before the crowd gets too thick. Hopefully everyone will be at work on Friday and it won't be too bad.

Your going to be surprised. They are lined up to get inside, before they even open, especially on sat/sun. Parking sucks too. Hopefully, you have a hotel in the vicinity, and you can just walk over. Have fun..

Hey kind of a dumb question... but do bodybuilders ever fight each other physically in those contests? Out of frustration?
