I went last year for the first time,and will definitely go again this year.We met Lee Preist while we were just waiting in line for tickets.I didnt even want to watch any of the things that you had to have tickets for....we watched the end of the strongman competition,and some powerlifting,and both were cool enough.You can also get ALOT of free stuff,and meet alot of cool people(only one HUGE,former muscle tech guy wasnt being a bit of a jerk,but it was cool.)
