THE GAY GAMES
I WON!!!!!
My first show as a bodybuilder (not Figure Competitor) and I won! Granted there were only 5 of us but is was a great experience. Everyone, well almost everyone, was extremely nice and did not care whether I was gay or not. We started out at 9 in the morning for Pre-Judging. This is where we do mandatory poses and our posing routine. I have to admit I was very nervous about the routine.
Thanks Nicole Moneer for helping me with it, it ended up being pretty good and I didn't forget any of it! Without Nicole's help I would've looked like a total novice :) The other girls looked really good and I wanted to say congratulations to all of you. Training and competing in a show is not easy but everyone did such a great job.
The night show took place at 6:30 and the whole crew came. Unfortunately they just missed my performance but they stuck around for the awards. I didn't realize I was going to be so nervous up there. They announced through 3rd place and took a dramatic pause, my heart was beating fast and then they announced the 2nd place winner was from Oregon (I think) and I was ecstatic! It was so great having everyone there and later at dinner Bill and Roe said they were probably more nervous then me!
The crowd in the auditorium was the most enthusiastic, appreciative crowd I have ever been in front of. The volunteers were all so wonderful to us and my fellow competitors had such class. Thanks to all of them for making this a great experience.
Most of all thank you to Roe and Todd for taking a chance on me, Bill for really supporting me, Jim for our little chat at dinner and Christina for being my future partner in crime :) Bahamas here we come!!!!!!!!! Also thank you John from Blue Stone in Evanston for a wonderful dinner afterward, the steak chipotle quesadilla was AMAZING!
