Greetings Everyone,
The 2008 NPC Texas season is here. We just wrapped up a great contest in Lubbock with the West Texas Classic. Andrew and Kathleen Zamora the promoters of the contest put on a first rate show again the year. In only their second year as promoters , they set participation and attendance records for the contest. With great marketing, lodging and a spacious venue competitors and spectators alike enjoyed a highly competitive contest. Big Branch Warren and new IFBB pro Jennifer Sedia entertained all with their size and some great dancing by Jennifer.
Next up we have the Ronnie Coleman Classic on April 19th. This year the contest has moved to a larger venue, the Mesquite Convention Center in Mesquite. Promoter Brian Dobson is reporting a larger number of entries coming in and record ticket sales, so please get your tickets now. This contest has historically provided great entertainment and competition. Additionally, we typically see local IFBB pro’s walking around the venue. You never know who you will see, so do not miss this event.
I would also like to remind competitors that you may now purchase NPC cards at weigh-in, so if you haven’t already purchased you card you can do so on Friday night. I do encourage you to purchase your cards sooner rather than later.
In closing I want to congratulate Tyler Manion the son of JM Manion and the grandson of the Prez, Jim Manion on Tyler’s World Championship in wrestling this weekend. Tyler competed in a bracket with more than 100 athletes from across the globe in Reno, NV and came out on top with a 6-3 point victor to capture his first world title. Way to go, Tyler!
Until the next contest....
