Kelsey, if you are reading this . . . you have a HUGE fan base. Personally, I became one of those fans after watching you on Sevan's podcast. You came up short this year but DO NOT QUIT. You know what you need to work on and have a year to work on it. Your fans will be with every step of the way over the next year. You got this girl!!!
💯💯💯💯👊🙏🏻
The lack of people is all on CFHQ and media. The hype ain't there from them and if weren't for you guys and other CF content creators there would be nothing on these awesome athletes or the sport of CrossFit we love so much. Shame on CFHQ and CFMedia. Thank you ButteryBros. ❤️
I was there on Sunday. I bet there was around 1.5-2k people. That stadium seats almost 8k... I think it looks horrible compared to other venues because of less attendance AND a huge venue lol. We went last year and the venue was so much smaller. Made the vibes better! But honestly, I had tons of fun cheering and it was very easy to say hi to athletes haha.
Also, in general I'm not surprised. I live in Northern California and it was a big decision for me and my husband to go even though we're both fans. Living in CA is rough. Everything is expensive. Other than our friends in tech, seems like everyone is struggling to make ends meet. And have you seen our gas prices?? Driving to SoCal and back was about 16 hrs of driving! Thankfully, we stayed with friends. That is what made it possible. Think about Airbnb and hotel prices in CA on memorial day weekend... Also, we aren't going to Texas for the games. I would guess most Americans chose between semi-final or crossfit games.
p.s. Even with all of that, I wouldn't be surprised if CrossFit is waning as a sport (duh, no media team and awesome storylines except for TH-camrs like you guys and Sevan/Hiller etc)... They are not doing well in that space at all as a company/sport.
Kelsey is my CF hero ❤ I’m so happy to see this profile, heartbroken for her but she’ll comeback stronger and next year will be her year! We love you girl!!
after watching this, I AM A FAN of Kelsey Kiel!!!! What an impressive performance. Cheers to you, babe!!
new fan of Kelsey Kiel. Thanks for making this awesome video! going to be cheering for her. Kelsey and Olivia not making it... wow heartbreaking!
As great as it is to escape reality and watch these events, I really respect Kelsie and Cole sharing their personal life experiences. ❤
You all get the best interviews! Everyone seems relaxed and in a good mood.
Unfortunately travel to and lodging in LA on Memorial Day weekend was likely cost-prohibitive for many. There are also high school and college graduations and graduation parties that weekend, some families have yearly traditions for Memorial Day that they have booked at least a year in advance. Also Carson is an outdoor venue and after what happened at Rogue with the weather I think a lot of people are hesitant to attend events that are 100% outdoors.
very true!
Kelsey is probably one of the most underrated athletes, I truly hope she is able to make it to the games as an individual in the years to come!
The Semi’s were too expensive! I live in Northern California and it was going to cost me and my wife just a little over 2k to watch all 3 days. Keep in mind, that’s not including food. Thank you for this video, I truly appreciate the butter bros work!
I feel for Kelsey. So close. She should feel very proud of her accomplishment!
Great content. The group that owns CrossFit presently is treating it like a fitness fad. Fads burn bright for a while then die out. CF needs an owner that is 500 % in their belief and execution of the CF product and lifestyle.
kelsey is a sweetheart. so easy to root for
Such an amazing story and athlete! I do think having the event on a holiday weekend in a more expensive area hindered the attendance, but surprised there weren't more local people. Definitely sad compared to all the other events. It's hard when you don't have consistent dates for people to plan further in advance for.
good point about the consistent dates haha
Europe was a full house though
@@danielpaulino8521 yeah other semis were def better attended. no doubt about it
I drove down from Oregon to go to this! So glad I did! Had a great time. 🤗
Kelsey is a pure CHAMP ⚒ of Rampin' competitors 🏋
Crossfit HQ needs fixing. This was an event that was poorly advertised and promoted.
Honestly, everything is sooo expensive now. Especially traveling to CA. And with Memorial Day weekend being a super cost inflated travel weekend it just can’t happen.
I would have loved to go though. 🎉
exactly!
So much excitement with the team's, men's, and women's competitions. I'm a huge fan of Kelsey's, and after her performance in the last 2 events, I thought she had put herself into the top 8.
I was watching this because I'm a fan of yours and Kelsey's. Then I saw the interview Marston did with me. First, I want to say, is that really how I look and sound? 😂 Second, what I really want to say is, thank you for even taking the time to talk to me and as always, encouraging and motivating me to keep fighting and doing what I'm doing. You guys are the best. God bless. ✌️❤️😀
I made it on the episode! So proud of you Kelsey! ❤
Thanks! I've been a fan of Kelsey, and it is good to get to know about her a little more. She did great!.
And I do think is alarming that empty stadium. I'm going to read the comments of those that share why they didn't go.
This is excellent!! Loved the editing and the way the semis were covered. You guys are talented and are helping the sport grow!
Thanks so much!!
What a competitor. Thanks for sharing her story. Keep fighting Kelsey‼️💪
What a great episode. What class and grace Kelsi showed in defeat. I’ve heard her name in past and will be following her much more now.
You guys really show us a cool side of it all and bring us into the action 😎thank you
You guys are what got me into this sport and videos like this make my week!! Thank for all your hard work.
I’m a huge CrossFit and just like last year, I made the drive from northern Cali to south Cali to watch semis. I was so sad with how little attendance it had this year, but I think a lot of that has to do with pricing. Tickets for the event this year were almost double of last year, have to pay everyday for parking with zero re-entry was just dumb. Also have you seen gas and lodging prices recently? I made a whole week out of this trip and I’m sure I spent more on tickets and parking than I did on Disneyland and Dodger game tickets that same week
This.
Awesome episode as usual! Was really cool to watch this after watching the stuff live. Kelsey is awesome, hope she makes it next year.
Wonderful piece of content you guys👏🏻
Total and utter awesomeness
Dang, 33:07 feels like a gut punch. That's about as raw as it gets
Thanks for this video… I became a Kelsey fan.. I hope she knows how awesome she is.. when I first got Netflix I was scrolling through and found the doco you guys made on the 2015 and 2016 games and was inspired… that was my introduction to this sport, I was hooked.. thank you.. I’d love to see Merterns featured on one of your videos… he didn’t make it this year, but he is a fan favourite for sure!,
Yeah David! 100lbs down and crushing it!
Don’t feel bad for even a second!! You gave your ❤ .No one can ask for more. Keep rockin😊g
Awww we love her! Nice job guys
Great show. Kelsey is awesome and you guys did a great job showing that. Heartbreaking to see that disappointment but she is a badass
Got my new Blenders ordered last night, used the #butterybros discount! thank you guys! love the content as well!
I live in Illinois. I thought 💭 about going out to California by plane or driving to Tennessee (8.5 hour drive) but decided to stay home and watch events.
I didn't know we were allowed to attend Casrson or else I would definitely hopped on a flight from SFO to watch in the epic, legendary arena! I think I'm trained to be fed ads over email and social, which is a good reminder to look up the things that matter! Gosh I would have loved to be there! Well done to Kelsey and to the Buttery Bros for a phenomenal story telling episode. I deeply value your heart Heber, you are so kind and understand exactly where an athlete is at through the journey. And Marz, good to see you back on the landscape where you made history! Now Im FIRED UP about your Hyrox worlds footage next!!! Juleeeee I've seen you handling that EMOM in Nice on IG! You guys slay all day ❤🏃♂🏹
The lack of attendance highlights the need to bring the games to Europe. It was a full house, awesome atmosphere. CF needs to get brave, widen horizons and capitalise.
Not sure what happened in West Coast Classic but I watched all the other semi-finals and by far there were more people in all the other venues. Brazil was crazy tho!
I was there on Sunday too. Mixed feelings because I often went to Carson and Del Mar, not only for the great competitors but the vendors too. I liked that we could sit anywhere without feeling like sardines but it was weird to see it kinda dead. Nonetheless, everyone had good vibes and I enjoyed my time cheering everyone there.
It‘s fascinating how the buttery bros make those events look so colorful and let the athletes shine. I‘m not a big fan of their attitude and ‚coolness‘ but I absolutely admire their art.
Neat
Was there on Saturday! Place was empty compared to last years semi final in Pasadena. Very surprised by it
Such a great video, you bros are awesome and an awesome athlete in Kelsey
"My Invite Was Revoked". 😅
Thank you for the great video 🥞!
Bros were interviewing ladies in the beginning so when Sam Dancer popped up in a pink Tee and pink hair tie, for 3 solid seconds I thought "Holy shit this chick looks ROUGHHHH"👀🤣🤣🤣🙌
On event attendance…I live about 20min away, but I had no idea it was happening here. Could be a me thing. I don’t do CrossFit, but your documentaries and TH-cam made me a fan. The open is like a better version of the Olympics in my mind, especially when we get the story lines and behind the scenes. I feel invested in these athletes stories. Real life super heroes!
The promotion could definitely be better. Where is all the hype leading up to the invent? I didn’t see any billboards, or anything on the radio. I didn’t see anything on TH-cam hyping the event. No info on when or where or how to get tickets. It feels like if you’re not in the CrossFit community you wouldn’t know. Can you think of any other sport where you have to be an active player in the minors or social leagues to even know about when the games are?
Whatever they did to promote in Oceana should be replicated. Now that I was tuned in this was happening I caught up on all the semis on TH-cam. Oceana looked so professional, so hype. I mean they had a full freaking halftime show. Oceana felt like NFL playoffs. The North America events looked like bingo at the local community center. Feels like no one wanted to spend any money to promote it and make it a prime time event. You have to spend to grow!
The fans shouldn’t have to seek out when and where events are happening. The information should come to us. Ppl are to busy with their lives.
Good job homies. Super entertaining crush it like always.
bummer these guys weren't in Knoxville....so many great stories there this past weekend.
So good🙌🔥
Oh no curse of the buttery bros following you at semi finals!
Kelsey You Are A Champ, Believe IT. Because Many of us do. GOD Bless.
There is no one better with a cam, Kings of Content buttery bros Please do a Documentary this go round for the Games.
Kelsey still did an amazing job! She may not have gotten to the top on the first try, but, next year she will get inside the top 8 and that will be that. I think you definitely need a day of training with Justin to make sure he gets back on the podium this year. He's just not allowed to count any of the Bros' deadlifts...
Love yall dudes! I too, noticed the lack of attendance. But the weird thing was hearing commentators say it was packed at certain points. I could be getting my regions mixed up but I don’t think so
Good to see Cole back and being successful. Seems like such a nice guy.
Dang how sad. I was there in Carson for 2014 games and it was insane how many people were there. I also went to semi’s last year in cali and it was pretty packed but still lots of space. Where did all the people go? 😢
I didn’t go this year cause I was celebrating my besties graduation in Disney. Nothing can compare to Disneyland 😂😂😂. Haley Adam’s knows Disney is life!
Nothing against Tia but i watch to see a competition, not a one man show. This was really refreshing and i hope you highlight more "real" athletes and thank you!
Tia is a true athlete; otherwise, she wouldn't have dominated the games. Tia competed to better herself, mentally preparing to dominate the games-my hat off to all athletes.
Agreed. A competition is SO much more fun to watch. Yes yes. Tia is amazing. But not so fun to watch. 🤷🏼♀️
I loveee the underdog type of story!
GREAT VIDEO ❤️
This is what @andrewhiller is talking about! someone to root for! a story to follow! where CrossfitHQ media needs to do, thanks ButteryBros!
I live relatively local and I really wanted to go but the cost of the tickets was the blocker for me. Unfortunately with costs rising everywhere somethings have to be cut and this was just a luxury.
You can add me to the Kiel fan base after this but especially after that Sevan Interview. She’s awesome and should be damn proud of herself. I know it hurts bad not making the games but I truly hope it drives her and she continues to grind away closing what weakness she has because she absolutely can make the games no doubt about it. Keep your head up Kelsey!!! We riding with you girl. DO NOT GIVE UP!! #RESPECT💯👊🔥💪❤️🙏🏻
Hands down one of my new favorite athletes for now and the future #teamkelsey
It was sad to see the turnout for semifinals in so cal! My family and I didn’t go this year because the ticket prices doubled compared to last year. The price was normal it was the extra surcharge fees that was the price of a single ticket. We went last year and had a blast. Hopefully we can make it next year.
WOW "2 minutes Faster than training" wait what?? okay, seems like her training hasn't been programmed to bring out the best in her to prep for these games.
Programming/team etc needs to change, She's got it all in there, just depends on who can bring the best out of you!!
Got to know Kelsie through Black Iron Nutrition. I became an instant fan haha. Great athlete. Hope we will see more of her in the coming seasons!
Disliking Kelsey would be like disliking puppies, sunrises and fresh bread. Such a wonderful bloody human 💚
Buttery Bros are why I watch and got into crossfit for sure! For attendance, what was the cost? I live in Ft Worth, retired, and would love to go to the games. An all events ticket is $700+ FOR A NOSEBLEEDER SECTION. No way in hell im going. I'll watch the totally shitty TH-cam broadcast. If the live events announcing is as bad as youtube, then there's a possible answer cause i bet 90% of fans are not rookies. Maybe if those people who ran CF were not jaw-jacking on youtube and podcasts constantly, there would be more getting done.
Only could have made it to that Sunday, but the ticket for one day was like $75 😢
All the love for Kels. She fought so hard during Semi's
It was hella empty there! I watched the kickoff day 1 and could easily spot Mars bouncing around in his bright pink fit.
Ya I thought it was crazy how empty the stadium was. I also selfishly enjoyed moving around the stadium for different view points on different heats lol. I expected the house to be full with how much history that place holds for CrossFit. Such a cool experience being able to take it all in.
Agreed on all accounts
Would have loved to go but I have 3 reasons why I couldn’t.
1) I live in Louisiana and flights are expensive
2) my wife is pregnant with our second child
3) I have a four year old
Bonus) flights are expensive
Oh yes on this west coast classic semi finals
🚀🚀
Kelsey is amazing!!!! I want to see you train with Chandler, Jessi, Dani or Bethany.
Come check out Ryan Perry out of Reno, NV - she's 15 and just qualified! Come for the fitness, stay for Lake Tahoe.
Please do a video on “Who is Abigail Domit?”! Great content guys! My heart ♥️ goes out to Kelsey! I felt like I was experiencing the Semifinals with her… the excitement, the vulnerability, and the heartbreak 💔! Didn’t go to Semi’s this weekend because it was backbreaking work to sit and spectate last year in Pasadena. Went to San Diego for some R&R. I always went to The Games when it was in Carson. The tennis stadium was always packed and everyone was jockeying for seats that the “Sea of Green” didn’t already reserve. LOL 😆!! I agree with the other comments… there was no hype leading up to Semi’s and media coverage for both West and East for Friday was extremely frustrating to follow. Adrian Conway did his best, but it was too much “telling” and not even ‘showing” 🫤.
We need a “I train in my garage” Arielle Loewen episode
Fun video! I went to syndicate crown and it was PACKed…. That’s why I didn’t go 😂
It was a different world in 2016 💰💰💰
Kelsey is amazing
I couldn't come bc I'm from Germany and ain't got no money, honey. Loved to watch though
WE LOVE YOU KELSEY 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Love Cole Sager such a legend ❤
I was at the Crown Syndicate in Knoxville this weekend and it was a great event
Crown did look better for sure
You know you should go to Europe for a bunch of training days, some one like Jelle Hoste or the Dukic brothers should have a visit
I think California, with the exception of when the Games were held in Carson, has never really showed up for CFG events. Over saturation? Too many other things going on? I don't think it has anything to do with the interest in CF or CFG in general, however. But that's always a juicy story line to poke at.
Actually, that's not the case. I went to the last Regionals held in San Jose, and it was sold out in advance, and the tickets were one fourth the price that they are now for the West and East N.A. Semifinals. Plus $40 for parking. Get real!
Huge Kelsey fan awesome 😎
Crowds maybe low due a CrossFit/Hyrox switch for a lot of peeps
It was Memorial Day Weekend and I think alot of crossfiters went out of town!
It was so empty compared to the other events. Probably so empty due to Memorial weekend.
Kels is easily my favorite person to watch in the crossfit space, other than the buttery bros ofc.
I tore my groin up on rope climbs. Terrible! Top tip: don’t wear leggings for a while. Every-time I pulled them off I felt the scabs coming off. 🤢🤮
How come the top 11 athletes made it to the games on the east coast semi final? That seems a little unfair
Time to go to BKG!
Reason I didn’t go to WCC. It’s just money man. Tickets were expensive. Fights fine, but then hotel, car rental, PAYING FOR PARKING. LA traffic sucks. While Carson is a staple of CF history, that was 16’ economy not 24’ economy.
Wish y’all were at the Syndicate Crown 👑💀
We need a Haley Adams video
Check out the interview video she did with Andrew Hiller. Very good interview
