Re: I heard that the pay outs for cycle Palooza are cut in 1/2
Can someone was there spell out what went wrong for us on the other end of the country?
On a interesting note:
When this thread was posted asking for help:
https://www.stuntlife.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=100238
on Nov 15th, it only has 34 repsonses and 618 views
When it's over this one has how many repsonses/views (and counting)?
Some of you made suggestions before, by why wait till after the fact to just bash when it's too late?
But then again, I don't know what happened.

an 18 y/o girl ran this show?? do you know how old she was 3 years ago?
im sure she didnt even know what a m/c was back then...
you cant expect a child to do this right.
i remember looking at this event 1-2 months ago and seen this girl (a child) was setting this up..i just dont get it.
back to my hole..........

Most people didn't grasp the fact that the stunt aspect of this event was just one piece of the pie that helped make CylePalooza a whole.
I could go on for days about this event as I am sure most of those that were there could, but the guys running this event know the mistake made and are already in the process of rectifying the situation. A few of us tried to warn them in advance, but they decided to put too much trust in the wrong people. I am sure those individuals learned a lesson that putting on an event is no easy process and the minor details make a huge difference.

i figured the cyclepalooza event itself would be good, we need more events like it...hopefully they aren't turned off by a bunch of retards trying to be heros...

and as for the END OF THE EVENT....the botton line is that we could have had just as much fun having everyone come to jacksonville and killing our spot for the weekend, so don't try and play it that way. the stunt portion of the event was ****ed up, just face it.

the rest of the event seemed cool, the stunt portion can be saved. i talked to all 3 of the guys putting on the event. john,steve, and scott.
i spent over an hour of my time getting drunk with steve in the VIP area talking about ****. he admitted they did not know what to do with our end of the venue and that they relied on leslie and then gixxie to take care of that. they now know it was a mistake and any event held in the future will go down differently. They will be contacting me, and a few other selected people i refered them to, for future events.
and yea he got me wasted on Sunday so i cannot complain about that

thanks sweet heart, you did one hell of a job following up with getting me down there, you promoted me to be there and ran your mouth all over south florida... and no show up Tony D...
It makes me look bad, there were a lot of people expecting me to be there.
Can you PM me a mailing address for your company I would like to send you a letter.
Thanks Tony--

i was there on my fiddy and it was s**t, no body there new what they were doing. most of the time they were calling the judges to come back cuz they kept leaving, and they didnt know what order the events were in. we did the sickest trick saturday. and sunday he was anouncing 50s sickest trick so 3 of us had to go convince them that we did this saturday. and i looked at the score sheet in his hand and it was blank so they didnt even score us for sickest trick. but i dont care about prizes i just wanted to ride. so im happy but feel sorry for those who do this for a living. i would be pissed to.
