Roark Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 The 2003 advertisement for the Arnold Classic includes a shot of Mark Henry with the Apollon replica overhead, so one would assume the replica will again be there. I'll check on that for sure, but if you have never been to the Classic, particularly the Expo, you may enjoy it. $10 gets you in for all day (get hand stamped to come and go) The Expo has many facets: bodybuilding, strongman show, cheerleading, martial arts, entertainment, and oh yeah, fitness babes. Last year, Wannagrip introduced himself to some in the last category and got his face slapped when the ladies thought his name was an incomplete sentence indicating a request. ???

mobsterone Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 I emailed Terry Todd about the possible events last week and gio this unedited response. S, We're inviting the top couple of men in pl and wl (the wl worlds has just started) and "Strongman", along with Svend and Mark, who earned the right to come back by their high finishes last year. Of course we won't know until a bit later whether everyone we invite accepts the invitation, but the early indications are that we'll have a strong field, no pun intended. We won't announce the final events until the world wl event is finished and the top men there have been approached. We've always wanted to attend the OH this year, and we're going to make a real effort to come in 2003. T PS I suppose you heard about the death of the US strongman, Johnny Perry, who finished fourth in the recent WSM show. I just heard yesterday and have no details.

Gripintime2 Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 mobsterone Here is a link to a strongman discussion board. It can be full of a lot of c**p and trash talking, but most of the time has some good topics and most of the renowned strongmen log in and comment once in a while, Schoonie, Pfister, etc... Has quite a bit on J.Perry. http://www.mcshane-enterprises.com/DPF/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Walker Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 Went this year and will return 2003. Staying at the Holiday Inn next to OSU's stadium. Where is the Inch going to be? I would like to take a shot at it for sh*ts and giggles- Rick Walker :hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roark Posted November 26, 2002 Author Share Posted November 26, 2002 Rick, Not sure about where the Inch will be, but in my opinion Arnold & Lorimer need to spring for a couple of Millenniums or Inchs, and give them away as door prizes!

Rick Walker Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 Me and Kaz last year. I was so overwhelmed, I couldn't think of anything to say to him-so I said, "Your the fuc*ing man!" He chuckled and said-"Thats the man, right beside me." He was referring to Svend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
