I like the charity angle... In years past, Corporate has done stuff for Wounded Warrior Project, etc. Would be great again this year...This past Arnold was my first time there, and i plan on making this a yearly thing. Such an awesome experience/event. For my first time there, the cage was everything i expected and then more, so i really wouldn't change too much. The only changes i'd make to the actual animal expo portion would maybe include expanding the shop. While the line was run very efficiently and quickly, something a little bigger would be nice, but not totally necessary if it's run efficiently again. I just remember the line for the shop sort of eating up one entire section of the cage entirely. Not sure if that's by design or not.
Here are a few things i'd like to see added/done however:
-With the "big can" promo you guys have been doing on here lately, i think it would be great if you did some sort of raffle for a few of those cans. Proceeds going to wounded warriors or some great cause. This may have been done, while i was around the cage a lot i did a lot of walking around to really take in the event. So maybe i just missed it.
-Lifters, would really love to see Chris Duffin. Think he is just one bad mother effer and incredibly knowledgeable. I think having him in/around the cage would be great, just love hearing his insights on lifting/training.
-Gear wise, really liked the photo i saw of Jason "huge" with the "black/yellow" animal. Also related, a lot of the limited release items, would love to see a limited quantity available at the store/cage for purchase.
- Sample/promo stuff, really think just some standard animal phone shell would be sweet. At the very least, for those die-hards that sign up for the box and etc.
Sorry if some of the stuff i stated has been done before, like i said it's my first time so i could be speaking ignorantly.
