I haven’t been to a professional bodybuilding competition
before, but it was nice to see the Media Theatre host this event.
The morning show was awesome, with contestants coming
from all over to compete for the NFC Philadelphia Championship and Tracey
Greenwood Classic.
There were young
people, older people, photographers, music and a lot of cheering going on for
everyone on stage.
The competition for men and women pre-judging started around
11:45am with numerous categories including Bodybuilding, Fitness, Figure and
Bikini.
The contestants would come up on
stage for about 3-4 minute intervals doing poses and comparisons.
With many age and weight
classes, the show was none stop, but very well organized and managed by a staff
who really knew what they were doing.
The audience loved the Media Theatre which proved to be an
excellent venue to host this event. The
place was packed! I noticed a few people
taking pictures of the balconies and asking if they were real. Unfortunately they aren’t, but it’s really
neat to see people come to Media to enjoy this competition, while also enjoying
the theatre.
The Media Theatre has a tremendous amount of potential.
I hope they continue to host these types of
events.
It’s great to spend a Saturday afternoon in Media, at the theatre, checking out something new and different.
Especially the women’s bikini segment, which
I think, would be a hit every weekend.
It's not intermission, but he show continues on this evening with final judging beginning at 6:30pm. Check it out, I’m quite glad I
did.
