Great event, BUT
by Vegard on 11/13/14SAP Center at San Jose - San JoseMe and my brother travelled all the way from Norway to be at Invitationals! Great people, great event! Only thing was that the music was not nearly high enough! We expected intense workouts and LOUD music! And the athlete interview between events should be heard in the statium also and not only on the live broadcast.. We hated sitting there and watching like Rich Froning and Camille getting interviewed after events and Rory Mckernan giving info and talking without being able to hear what they were saying... Security people SUCKED.... After I got my autograph from Rich Froning I was SO excited! We pulled back to wait for the Cool Down show to be done to maybe be able to speak with Rich and Julie and Jason and the others. Went up to the entrance area cause before the event started we had some KillCliffs which we were told would not be allowed inside the arena, so we asked the man in the infodesk if he could hold on to them until the show was over, he was awesome and did. And we went up to collect them and drink them during the Cool Down show. We couldn't drink it all so we asked the security guy if we could just go out and leave the Kill Cliff in the car and still be allowed to come back in. He said, and i quote "Yes if you have your tickets.. or just go, I'll remember your faces!" So we did, and when we came back we walked in and got stopped by another security guy. He said "once you go out you can't come back in" and we explaind to him that we had talked to the other security guy and he told us that is was okay cause we just wanted to put the killcliff in the car instead of throwing it away. We pointed to the guard that promised us that we would come back in.. and he came over and said that he had promised us. but the other security said .. "No. once you go out you can't come back in".. Can u imagine the dissapointment we felt? coming aaaall the way from Norway for a two hour event and getting treated like that? thrown out when we were promised that we could come back in.
