      Problem is that they will most likely over sell the seats. Also the people who go to these types of events really don't have the money to pay for something like this. It's at the minimum 1000 dollars to go to this between food and stay. That's too much in this economy.

    @leigh3253 3 місяці тому +19

    Ok, I feel obliged to comment. I’m glad they seem to have improved the seating for WSM. Considering it was nonexistent last year. But also, the VIP last year also promised meet and greets; and all you can eat and drink; plus a goodies bag. What we got (and I paid almost $1500 for VIP everyday) was a couple of the guys coming up and being interviewed by Terry Hollands in the VIP area. But they always had to go straight away to the recovery tent. So no meet and greets. In fact, the general admission had more success by stopping the athletes as they crossed the road to the competitor area. The food was abysmal, even the competitors complained, and the ‘all you can eat’ bit was crisps, fruit, and water! Not a beer in sight.
    As for the ‘goodies bag’, it was a poster. Literally just a poster, for you to try and get signed. But as I alluded to before, there was more chance of signatures had you paid nothing for general admission.
    The whole week was a disgrace. I wish I could leave an image I took of the food. If you want a great show, with great seating and actual meet and greets. Save your money for the Shaw Classic/Strongest Man on Earth contest, in August. I went to both last year and the latter was sadly far superior. As a WSM fan my whole life, I hope they have improved it this year. But alas, the fact they’re now charging for general admission, suggests it’s still all about the money.

    • @willman43
      @willman43 3 місяці тому

      I was there last yr also as I live in Myrtle Beach. I had VIP Sat and Sun. Food sucked but I did get pictures with mostly everyone I wanted. The organization overall was absolutely terrible, couldn’t see half the events, people needed ladders to see. Lack of food trucks and merchandise.

    • @tonyyang5507
      @tonyyang5507 3 місяці тому +1

      I agree everything you said and had similar experience. I had bought vip tickets for WSM in Sacramento and it was a big disappointment. Peoole who didn't pay had better views of the events and chance of meeting with the athletes. Just get there early and secure your spot. Save your money, its not worth it.

    • @leigh3253
      @leigh3253 3 місяці тому +1

      @@willman43 Yes, but you had to chase down the athletes I bet? They didn't come up onto the veranda specifically for meet and greets. It was really only Mitch that came up for any decent period of time, and was awesome. At the Shaw Classic VIP, they have a specific time after the event where all athletes have a table and the VIP's go from table to table to have a one to one chat. It was a different breed of VIP; and cheaper! Done for the fans not the money.

    The appeal this competition used to have was scenic competitions with implements that (although dangerous for the athletes) were amazing to watch. WSM has had years to get it together and have refused to even acknowledge its inability to put on shows as good or competitive as the ones that have emerged the last few years.

I can’t make sense in my head of spending roughly $350 for just myself (excluding my family) to sit on a bleacher and watch what’s historically been a free public event.

  • @richardsanchez5444
    @richardsanchez5444 3 місяці тому

    Its happening. The new generation of competitors are coming in. Speaking personally of course. Ive seen it twice. I first became aware of strongman back in the late 90s as a kid. Guys like Viertanen, Mitt, Phister, Ahola, Samuelsson, Karlsen. Then guys from Pudz era like Big Z who competed along with the "modern" guys that started coming in. Thor, Eddie, Brian and of course Loz.
    I know some of these kind of ran into other eras but i can almost see a line that divides the different eras. Its great don't get me wrong, we get new guys coming in new records to set, but also a little bittersweet. Seeing the changing of the guard so to speak.

    Much better setup for potential DLWR also for Thor will be at strongest man on earth 2024 as raw max DL is the first event and no crazy jumps like in GL but any weight increments allowed

    I'm sure i remember wsm being lots of events not just 6. The final would be 6 events and then halved the competitors then another 6 events.
    Competitors should not know the events before tue competition. They should only know what body parts are going to be used ie. Shoulder press, squat, throw, hold etc.

    If they did a live stream and sold e-tickets they’d make so much more money than this current in-person only option.

    I was in the crowd last year. It was awesome both of the events that I got to see. But it would take 5 hours of standing at the next or 2 events from now if you wanted to see ANYTHING. There weren't vendors or portapotties enough for the size of the crowd. Don't get me wrong, it was fun in memory, 5 days later. But I left feeling let down and disappointed.

      Should’ve arrived for the qualifiers. It was a blast when nobody was there & all the athletes were fresh, had time to meet fans & chat.
