Nastia Liukin FAILURE :(
Posted: Sun Feb 22, 2009 12:02 am
today i went to the Tyson American Cup at the Sears Centre in Illinois, i thought it was gonna be an amazing experience but i was kinda wrong.
okay so we got there at 12 and they werent letting anybody into the arena.
the autograph session was supposed to start at 12:30.
12:30 arrived and they were finally letting people in. my dad and i got in and headed over to the table.
it was crowded and poorly barracaded and right when we got in like the security guy said we were the last people and anyone behind us would not get an autograph.
12:50 arrives and still no sight of any signers. now they start saying only 125 people will get autos.
finally Kerri Strug comes out and the line starts moving, no sight of Nastia.
Nastia comes out at around 1:00 and everyone starts cheering and people are pushing and shoving to get into line.
the security guy dissapears and people start cutting left and right.
the signing session had to be over at 1:10 because the had to go live with the opening ceremonies.
my dad and i finally get into the baracades and they say 2 more minutes.
so were hopeless but we still wait.
not theyre saying 5 minutes but then Nastia gets up and leaves.
people follow her but she gets in the elevator and leaves.
poorly done and a waste of an hour and a half of my time.
i swear six flags was running it (it was exactly like when i saw demi at six flags, horrible security)
pretty sad i didnt get to meet her.
but a lot of people didnt as she only signed for like 10 minutes when they originally said 40.
oh and in case you were wondering Jordyn Wieber(USA) & Fabian Hambuechen (Germany) won.
