y are we entertaining the notion of there being no Cage at the Arnold?

Why not? Change is no fun, but sometimes, change is good... The CAGE has been on a roll since '02. That's 10 solid years. Cant keep doin this forever, eh?

10 years for The Cage, sounds like that is a good reason to do it. Let's celebrate the 10 years of The Cage and make it the biggest, best Cage ever.

If your not going to do tell us ASAP, this is a big trip on our calendars and we need to book accommodation soon as they get booked up quickly.
So just be clear, are you doing it or not?

I'm with Shukin on this one; no Cage and no ABC event it's doubtful I'll make that trip.

The cage is Such a huge part if the Arnold can't imagine it not being there...I would be shocked/disappointed.
I agree... I feel like a lot of people would be shocked and disappointed, even if you replaced the Animal Cage with a Universal booth. The Cage is why a lot of people even go to the Expo at all. I think that people love Animal and the ANIMAL Cage bc it's something very earthy, very raw, and the energy is always infectious. The athletes in the Cage are some of the best manifestations of that animal inside all of us.
I think if you take that away a lot of ppl will go beyond disappointment to being pi..ed. If you're wanting Universal to be represented at the Arnold then set up a booth, but don't take away the Cage. I liked the idea of having a Pros vs Pros, Animal vs. Universal... maybe that's been a long time coming. I bet it would get you one hell of a crowd and the energy would be ridiculous.

Ever thought of a diff. Animal setup, other than a Cage?
Still with the dumbells n squat racks and lifting events, but somethin different than a cage to house it all in?
I have no idea what would be used, just thought i would throw that out there
And with the attempt to build the U brand, and the focus started on it at the O, i think universal has to make some sort of presence at the Arnold
I might be at the Arnold this year with a training partner lifting at the XPC meet. I will definitely be stopping by the Cage (if it's there) for the first time if I go!
