Back from the Arnold classic. Had fun, got a lot of work done and saw a lot of people from Applied and MAN and on and on. Lou Farigno is about the only one who took me by surprise on how big they were (hes like 6'7" with a back as wide as a door). Meet Dexter Jackson, Jay Cutler, M. Fahad, Chris Cormier, Victor Martinez, tons of people I know im missing someone, oh, kicked it with Darren from NP for a little while at the Europa booth before 50 cent came by (yep, 50's starting a sup. line).

Highlight for me was probably when one the IFBB judge stopped me in the lobby asking if I had a booth because he wanted to pick up some GET DIESEL products.

Some of my pics:

Me and Rose from Status

If you dont know who that is with me in this photo.....your not DIESEL!...........Louie Simmons of Westide Barbell in Ohio, worked out there Sunday AM westside-barbell.com

The GET DIESEL crew (less Trip dogg)

Me and my boy Rodney Jang editor of Status

Myself and 2 of my fav friends Ocean and Rose

It was fun, saw almost everyone I had to see, missed PA because he didn't get there till Sat, you would have thought Cytodyne and VPX was giving out free crack because they had lines around the corner....I dont know who everyone was waiting to meet. Weather this year was nice also, no 20" of snow like last year, this year was 70 degrees.

Definitely need to go next year; it's cool to meet some of the greats. I take it they take the time to answer your questions or is it usually Hi and Bye?
The greats who? No one per se is great to me. Everyone I talked to besides "whats up" was people I know in the industry, but someone like Lou for example, he had a line around the corner to talk to him. One time me and Dexter Jackson was taking a piss, when he walked out there was about 10 kids waiting for his autograph so I mean they have to be "hi, bye" with some people.

Good point, not quite "greats" so much as guys whose names I can recognize because of stuff they've done. If Simmons was there, did anybody see Poliquin? I'm trying to keep my eye out for fitness/BBing expos up here in Canada. I know there was one you came up for in the fall you mentioned, where do you find out about them?

I associate 'greats' as status in their current fields or sports. Not in life in general. Not even someone to look up to. Just someone who did really well; they're the greats to me. Ferigno is a great eventhough he didn't win a whole lot he borught so much to the sport through exposure.

Many of you have probably seen me and Chuck trade some jabs in some threads in the past; but I wanna say this is one of the genuinely coolest guys I met and talked to at the AC.

It was great meeting you Chuck!

Haha, yeah I know I passed MP a few times, I think you guys were in the 800 to 1200 row, somewhere over there. You should have said "hey Chuck".

Yep, thanks, who was the other guy I meet from Applied? That booth you guys had, was that a double size or single size booth? It was the same size as MAN's right?

The black one was "special order" if anyone has one, they got it from me directly. I think imma run the "CERTIFIED DIESEL" again in black, but only in XL to 4XL.

No I send shirts to DPS and Nutrplanet to sale also. NP actually use to move alot of the blue "GET DIESEL OR DIE TRYIN' shirts when they first came out. DPS sells alot of anything with GET DIESEL on it, but they have tons of powerlifting customers.
