Does Arnold go every year even though he is busy being the governator now?

[jth99]

i don't think arnold will be there this year. i don't think his advisors wanted him to. I live in columbus so i'll definitely be there

 

[superman15]

he was there last year. But i have heard that he might not be associated with it anymore.( i heard that somewhere, dont know if its true or not)

 

[swelty]

i just made plans to go. it will be my first time to see the pros in person. i plan on just going to the expo hopefully get to see some

 

[chiseled21]

I typically go every year, the expo is all I go to...I just like the cheap supplements, fitness models, free t-shirts, and leaving with the feeling of being a fat small bastard in comparison to the freaks at the show.(at least I am taller than most of them)

 

[swelty]

ya i heard there just walking around like every one else. my girlfriend thinks iam big, she will freak when we see a pro.

I cannot attend due to distance and getting a visa to USA is a pain.

Ten bucks to get in and they stamp your hand for re entry. Its a nice way to kill a day

The Arnold Classic has become the biggest pro event in the U.S. The Olympia has slipped quite a bit, & I don't think it will recover. The Arnold is the only event left in the U.S. where you will see a large number of pros covering the booths for their sponsors.

Tickets for the men's pro event are sold out well in advance, but you can look at this page for more info.

Many of the events are free with an Expo admission ($10/day). The Arnold is known for its Expo. Don't buy Expo tickets in advance. You can get them there without surcharges.

New this year will be an Arnold Amateur Classic.

Hotels will be a problem this late. Even in neighboring towns, rooms are booked up the prior year. You can try this list, this site, or the "Contact Us" link on the same page. Downtown is closest.
