    Official Chicago WBB meet.

    As Guido and I mentioned in the NYC meet, we would also be willing to have a meet in Chicago. Anyone interested? We'd have to get more details, but I think it's very easily attainable.

    I've never been there, and I'm sure my car could hardly make it, but I'll go if we can get more than a few people there. And if someone knows the area that would be great. I'd get to explore a city, and hang out with some lifters. Not a whole lot better than that.

    geez both of these meets about about 6-7 hours away for me close enough ot make the trip but far enough to make it expensive!!

    - well see how broke i am when we do this one but im in if i can be there for sure!!!
    Way down this road, in a gym far away, a young man was once heard to say, "I've repped high and I've repped low, No matter what I do my legs won't grow."

    He tried leg extensions, leg curls, and leg presses, too. Trying to cheat these sissy workouts he'd do. From the corner of the gym where the big men train, Through a cloud of chalk and the midst of pain.

    Where the big iron rides high and threatens lives, Where the noise is made with big forty fives. A deep voice bellowed as he wrapped his knees, A very big man with legs like trees.

    Laughing as he snatched another plate from the stack, Chalking his hands and monstrous back, Said "Boy stop lying and don't say you've forgotten, Trouble with you is you ain't been SQUATTIN"

    I could potentially make a Chicago meeting. For NYC, I'm out.
    I know you're half-crazy, but I wish you'd go all the way.

    Yeah, I'm in GB so I'm about 2.5 hours away driving 80-85 mph all the way down there. But if I'm doing the speed limit 3.5-4 hours at the very least. Assuming I don't hit any traffic.

    It's actually not that type of meet. We're all just going to get together, hang out lift, and it looks like catch a cubs game. No competition involved. Hopefully we can get as many people as possible.
