What's going on here??? How can someone pass up the chance to see the show, let alone see it WITH a PRO????

Here is an awesome opportunity. A chance to see the Arnold Classic Men's bodybuilding finals sitting in VIP seats watching the show with up and coming IFBB Pro Evan "Ox" Centopani. Ox is potentially going to compete in this show in 2011 and you and a friend will have the opportunity to see the finals with him, and have him share his perspective as only he can - a true Animal, gentleman, student of the sport and future competitor.
Requirements:
1. You must be in Columbus, Ohio
2. You must attend the 12pm event in The Cage on Saturday, March 6th (when the winner is announced) to claim the prize
3. You must be able to attend the Men's Final starting Saturday night at 7PM
Rules:
Here is what you have to to do... Tell us why you want to/need to see the Men's Final and what it would mean to hang with Ox during the show as he gives you his unique take on bodybuilding.
Best entry will be selected and announced at The Cage. If you are not there at the 12 noon event the tickets and the opportunity will go to the next best entry.
Why would I want to do this...??? I would love the opportunity to see my very first pro show, with a man who has been in the trenches, won the New York Pro, and can give me insight as to what the judges are looking for, from a pro's perspective... As a competitive athlete, the information that would be passed on would be invaluable and may help me take my own physique to the next level, when my shows roll around, later this year... Ox would be able to give me insight on subtle nuances that an untrained eye wouldn't see or notice... Plus, from what I've seen he's a downright awesome person, and it would be incredible just to meet him, let alone see my very first pro show, in the VIP section no less, with him... It would be a memory that would last a lifetime... So, I humbly ask you to consider giving this athlete this opportunity... And thank you, Animal, for even affording the opportunity for this to happen to myself or the lucky winner...
Winners will be announced at the 12 noon event at The Cage on Saturday March 6th. You have to be there to claim your prize but get your entries in now. Deadline for entries will be Monday March 1st.

Honestly, attending the Arnold with a Pro would top off perhaps the best Spring Break for me. Not just a Spring Break though-- this is my last real Spring Break as I graduate from school this May and then get a real job. This may also be my last real chance to get away without the consequences of work/life getting in the way.
I'm bringing my wife to the Arnold, which would be her first. What better way to experience the Arnold than hanging out at the Cage and attending the "East Coast" bodybuilding Superbowl with one of the top pros, Evan. I really think this may help her realize the dedication, desire, and heart that goes into bodybuilding and why I have such a deep appreciation for the sport. After all, everything is better in person and being there would be a completely different perspective than merely looking at the pictures.
I'm driving up from North Carolina and I could think of no better way to really enjoy the weekend than a) Attending the Arnold Expo/Cage b) Going to the Arnold Classic and c) Getting to hang out with my wife and one of my favorite pros, Evan.
With aspirations of doing my own natural show later this year, it would be great to witness the Arnold with a pro who knows the ins and outs of this game. That would just be another leg up and extra motivation for myself to really get focused on my own goals. A truly remarkable, once in a lifetime opportunity that I would forever cherish.
The Arnold Classic is seriously the one time of the year that I'm ALWAYS looking forward to. There is no better time of the year...

I for one am looking at this as the opportunity of a lifetime....CAUSE IT IS. My entry wasn't the longest or the most eloquent, but here's hoping I'm picked based on passion for the sport.
If it's worth anything.....tell OX that after the show I'll take him to an indoor water park and buy him snacks at the concession stand, lol.
Inked Muscle and myself want to put our name in the running.We will just get a late start on the workout.And someone need to go to keep OX inline.I'm just say'n.

The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed?
this is my first trip to the Arnold as i have been unable to attend for the past two years.
it sucks that i've never been there since i only live a few hours away.
seeing the Arnold Classic itself would be great.
at $100 per ticket, i really can't drop the cash on those tickets right now even though i'd really like to.
seeing this show along with a serious IFBB Pro such as Evan would be awesome...
especially considering that he'll potentially be competing in this show next year.
my girlfriend is coming along with me for the whole weekend (Thursday - Sunday)
and i'm sure she'd be blown away by this experience as well.
i think it's important to note that doing this would be the only thing worth missing the national ABC for!
good to hear we can still catch the tail-end of the ABC if we win this promo.
Man I'm not a judge but I'm really feelin the entries submitted by B Con and Joe Yamma....both stand-up dudes and very worthy individuals who are dedicated to the sport/lifestyle and to the company.
