      Besides the CAGE

      Besides the CAGE, what are some events at the expo that a first timer needs to go to?

      I usually watch the strongman comp a little, go around the expo once, do some pull-ups at the marines booth and pick up any gym goodies I might need (belt, chalk, liquid chalk, wrist wraps, etc.)

      Other than that, I spend all my time at The Cage. Why go anywhere else?

      I'll be there all weekend with the midwest guys, so I imagine I'll take a few trips around the expo. Can't wait for the ABC and hopefully to meet some of the legends in attendance.

      yeah, unless he is counting the stuff that goes on behind the curtains of the cage I am not sure what he could be referencing.

      I don't think Animal can be affiliated with the things him and Theo try to get you to do with them.
