Well...that was exciting; that 6'6" young man named Jon who was the best time...and his dear dad competed but couldn't finish --- he's awesome for his first time competing! Ok, it's over and onto Philadelphia next...

Just watched last nights competition. The only one who got me excited was Travis Rosen of Franklin, TN. He's my hometown boy. I've realized that my hometown paper has never mentioned the guy so I'm gonna make sure they interview him. I'd love to meet the guy. He's awesome.

Ahhh, that young Jon {6'6" young man} works in a paper plate factory; he's so cool and quite the competitor for his first time; best score & time all night!

Ok, it's over and onto Philadelphia next... I had it going to the wrong city... '��American Ninja Warrior'�� Episode Guide (June 29): Pittsburgh Qualifying Round 'American Ninja Warrior' 2015 kicks off with the first of the city qualifying rounds in Venice Beach, Calif. From there, the show travels to Houston, Kansas City, Universal Studios in Orlando and Pittsburgh before moving onto the highly anticipated Las Vegas finals shows. The series is also teaming with the non-profit military veteran organization Got Your 6 to shoot two special episodes featuring an all-military cast of active-duty and retired personnel. R U tuned in ladies???

That TJ from Indiana was pretty fun to watch. Loved seeing him make it.

As much as I enjoy seeing women succeed in this competition, seems like too many of them are making due to preferential treatment. That gal less than 5' tall had zero chance and it was evident. Then a guy like TJ waits 10 days camping out to get a chance? Yeah, it's definitely quotas.

You have a valid point; TJ didn't make it through the 'ALLOWED' competitors in KC so he drove and camped out for this event and some of those women get a 'BYE'...not fair IMHO

Now that was truly sad for Michelle Warnky. She was amazing and awesome. Damn!

tta1128 stated >>> Now that was truly sad for Michelle Warnky. She was amazing and awesome. Damn! But her time and distance still qualified her; so they must want at least one female to compete from each trial city...hmmm Gonna have to check on our other ANW viewing buddy - SuzQ66, wonder what up with her not being in here tonight!

Just watching the military show. Ugh. Why is Deon's (the nuclear sub guy) sexual preference needed to be disclosed? I hate this need to point out a person's sexual preference. And besides he went down. As bulked up as he is he also couldn't do it.

Wow, Justin McKinney (the short guy) flew through the course. That was so much fun to watch. Awesome.

Yeah, it was fun to watch him! How about the 79 year old? I was sad he didn't make it far at all...
