Here are the pics, gentlemen:

Here's a nifty little slideshow that goes through all the pics. When I edit the photos to rotate them so they're right-side up, they don't stay that way for the slideshow for some reason. Oh well...

Had a blast, guys. Watching that guy squat 865 was awesome, too. Good training session, good food.

I put all of mine up on my bodyspace. Was thinking about not putting the 315 failure on there, but decided to so that I can look back at the pic a month from now and say "I cant believe I ever got pent under that"

Here's a short email I sent to the gym manager:
I want to thank the staff and members of Pitbull Gym for being so accommodating and supportive and allowing us to train at your gym on Saturday June 21st. All of us had a great time and we will be back. A few of us will also be attending the meet scheduled for July 12th. You are one of the few gyms left where powerlifting is revered and not shunned, and where strength is honorable and not considered disgusting. Keep up the great work. We WILL see you again!
Thank you!
I really enjoyed training there. We may have to go back to that place soon...

Tire flips were actually from a different ABC Event, but in the same album online. I have since incorporated those into my weekly training routine. I'd love to do them again at a future ABC Event, though!
I for one wish I could remember everyones names from the event. Is my memory fading? I hope not lol. I had a good time at Pit Bull, I worked out on my own and the next couple of days I was pretty sore on my upper body. I was able to do a few exercises that I normally cannot do because of gym equipment.
While I was not in the area where the powerlifters were doing the squats I could hear it all and saw the end of the big guy with the big weights. He did have a pair of bands from the top of the rack. I found the atmosphere good and even overheard one of the guys, not our group, telling another guy that nobody cares about what weight youre lifting. All that matters is you are getting yourself a good workout and if you need help just simply ask for it. I thought to myself, that guy will not last with the weights.
