We've been blasting this everywhere. The SaveTheMsOlympia.com url will take you to the petition page. We also have a group on facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/SaveTheMsOlympia/
All of the facebook groups, including Gear'd Up, Hardcore Fitness, and all the FBB groups have opened their doors. I've been working closely with my friend, 2005 Ms. Olympia Yaxeni Oriquen-Garcia. Hope y'all signLast edited by MITM; 10-29-2014 at 05:37 PM.

It's going to take a lot of heart and consistency. Thank you to everyone for their support.

The hard truth is that as much as we, already fans of the sport, may appreciate the athletes and their hard work and dedication, the average person (and even the average gym rat) aren't fans of the level women's BBing has reached. I don't want to sound like these are my personal opinions, but I think at this point, with the WOmen's O almost canceled once before (mid 90's I believe) and the huge disparity in payouts compared to other divisions, we have to acknowledge certian things for what they are.
I said something similar in the thread about that film project that followed a female BBer trying to "save" the sport. I will respect anyone who has their own goals and sets about to achieve them, but you can't be angry at others for not being fans.
It would certainly be an end of an era if this was indeed the end of the division, but $ always seems to be the driving factor in decisions like this.

Thanks for your input. We'll continue our work. Dani Reardon just signed I'm working with Ariel Gail & Yaxeni. We'll get it done. Like I said in my video (which you clearly didn't watch), 'there's no guarantees.' We're doing this in hopes we can save the event.
We're mobilizing!! Just saw something really cool. The group I started less than 24hrs ago with 144 members now has 980!! Join Us!! https://www.facebook.com/groups/SaveTheMsOlympia/Last edited by MITM; 10-30-2014 at 10:04 AM.
