In 2008, the 20th Anniversary Arnold Classic will welcome back many of the event's past champions offering a rare opportunity to gather with icons of men's bodybuilding.

The Arnold Classic is the premiere event in men's professional bodybuilding and annually welcomes the sport's top professional athletes who will compete for top prize money and the coveted Audemars Piguet watch.

Prejudging for the Arnold Classic is held annually Saturday at 12 noon at Veterans Memorial Auditorium proceeding the 7 p.m. evening finals. The Arnold Classic annually sells out and fills the entire Veterans Memorial Auditorium. 15 international judges and officials will preside in 2008 at the 20th annual Arnold Classic, and the Ms. International, Fitness International, and Figure International events.

In 1970, Sports Illustrated identified Columbus, Ohio's Mr. World contest as one of the "Greatest Moments in Sports" -- a young Austrian athlete named Arnold Schwarzenegger took home the championship trophy and $500. Since that time, the event now known as the Arnold Classic has become the premiere event in professional men's bodybuilding.

The 2007 Arnold Schwarzenegger Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to six-time winner of the Ms. Olympia, Corey Everson. Everson helped to create a new standard for female muscularity that inspired generations of women to pursue weightlifting.
