I posted this elsewhere but it is worthy of posting here again. What if an Animal did a HUGE deadlift in the Cage, and it counted in the rankings? Would that make the stakes higher if three judges were staring at the lift five feet away looking for a mistake? Right now the top dl in the world at 242lbs in the past calendar year is 810.

That would be awesome. Do you think a deadlift competition could be arranged? I think that could be fun. Allow a few people to compete with you as if it were a real competition.

Its only an idea, there will be no competition as that would interfere with other events at the AC, but a sanction of one lift could be a possibility. I have pulled many big dls in the CAge over the years, none of them counted but would have fared well on the top 100, my
750 at 220 comes to mind. I was hoping that with judges there to make it count the fans may get more fired up and more would attend, do you agree? We just dont have the time for a full blown contest.

Might want to get noise ordinances checked before letting all the Animals know about this. lol.

For real though, I'm sure having a sanctioned lift at our very own Cage would make it, might sound wierd, more personal, for everyone. guaranteed record attendance

I think this is something that could be looked into at the ABC on the saturday evening. The cage has a lot going on already, what with this, the pro's V Joe's, seminars, bench off's/squat off's (if they are planned again), public bench bodyweight for reps, exhibitions from the likes of J-Rock/Big Dog/Westside Barbell etc etc...

Bros lets make this clear, it MAY be possible to get my lifts SANCTIONED with 3 world class judges present, but we are NOT goint to turn it into a full blown contest, its just going to detract from the rest of the events that day. To simplify, I will always do what I do in the cage, the exception being ONLY that 3 judges will be seated inside, thats all. As for the ABC doing a dl contest after the expo thats GREAT!

That is a fair point you have there. I think that would be fun to get the contest going on afterwards.

Thanks for not flat out rejecting it, haha.
