prague pro or Arnold classic europe

[xdude]

Something strange I notice it appears that this years Prague Pro is happening this weekend as is the Arnold Classic Europe
is this an example of the split in the pro organizations.?
seems stupid to me , forcing fans to choose one or the other .This is Europe's biggest shows. Chances are there are a large number of people that would go to both.
but with one in Prague and the other in Madrid that aint happening.
did I get this wrong?

Cut throat business, wouldn’t surprise me.

well that is what does nt make sense to me, say 50k went to each show last year, I would bet 30K went to both shows if not higher. this is Europe and they get a 6 weeks vacation time.
so having the same weekend, means the attendance will be way down to both. I suspect this will be a disaster for both shows.

Re: prague pro or Arnold classic europe

it appears that the Nordic pro has the same guys as Arnold Classic Europe.there was less than 10 competitors .So what happened to the top 10 from the Mr O...don't they have to re-qualify?
anyhow the result is the whole show is less than 1/2 hour .
