"WE HAVE SENT THE MESSAGE LOUD AND CLEAR. WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS, THE HUNGRY ONES. THIS IS OUR JUNGLE AND WE ARE THE ANIMALS. THIS IS WHERE THE STRONG GET STRONGER AND THE WEAK GET EATEN. THIS IS WHERE MUSCLE AND THE MIND BECOME ONE, FUSION OF THE FUTURE. ONCE YOU ENTER THERE IS NO RETURN. YOU SURVIVE OR DIE. THIS IS OUR PARADISE. BECOME ONE OF US." ~RICK BAYARDI
The cage is where it's at!!! My first Arnold experience last year I just stood around watching in Amazement as all the Animal crew and guest lifters left a mark in my mind, it's definately something you have to check out in this lifetime so much Raw Energy goin on here it's just Nuts!!!
Get your shit in order, and get your training in order. Start kicking ass, and take out the crap that doesn't matter. Start doing and believing in the stuff that works, and do it today and forever. You want science and studies? Fuck you, I've got scars and blood and vomit.
This is a call to arms for some of you. It is for me too. Stop all the things that make you a pussy and steal your energy. Get your life back.

Ton of energy, no doubt about it D... But also a lot of opportunities for quiet moments too where ya can kick back and shoot the breeze with the athletes or other folks in the CAGE...

You coming back brother D? Stoked to see how much you progressed this year homie.
To be honest, after my experience last year, The Cage IS the Arnold and the Arnold IS The Cage.
I'm going to The Cage again this year, not sure what else really happens at the arnold (lowercase for emphases)

The only time I had to the entire weekend was about 10 mins before the Bros VS Pros and I had to deadlift, luckily there wasn't a line or flooding at that moment.
I did get to see some of the Pro Strongman event.

It is nice to be able to be able to buy gear in person, and sometimes they have it discounted for the show. Last year I picked up some killer Inzer wraps, and this year I'll probably pick up a Slingshot. I always go first thing in the AM though, before the crowds get too big.
Usually there is a booth or two I'll stop at to say hi to certain people as well.
Other than that, the only time I leave the Cage is to hit the can.

In The Box this year, Corporate should put in a port-o-potty...
We can make our own piss-only toilet...all you need are some shower curtains, a tarp, a 5-gallon bucket, some oil-dri (or kitty litter), and garbage bags.
Curtains for privacy, tarp for bad aim, garbage bag goes in bucket, oil-dri/kitty litter absorbs piss. Periodically change bags (Razor's job), put them out with the regular pick-ups they do throughout the day.
Problem solved for less than $50, much cheaper than a port-o-potty.
I know we're only joking around, but I am completely serious, lol.
