2021 NPC Emerald Cup Men's Bodybuilding, Classic & Physique Championships (Bellevue, WA - April 23 - 24, 2021) As this tumultuous year plus of sometimes uncertainty continues, a definite sense of 'normalcy' returned to the Pacific Northwest with a familiar stage, even with reduced audience size and vendor expo, a hallmark of past shows, an annual rekindling of friendships still happens...like clockwork! The Craigs have done a masterful job guiding this ship for the last 40 years, as a transition to new ownership under the VERY capable hands of Ribic Productions is taking place. While participation was understandably lower this year, the quality of competition DID NOT disappoint! Bodybuilding saw quite the showdown between NPC Vancouver Champion Stuart Sutherland and Super Heavyweight Jerark Toribio who incidentally took Overall in Classic Physique. Both these gentlemen are headed to the Pro ranks in the not so distant future. Breaking with 'tradition' somewhat, this page only featuring the Men's OPEN Divisions. Will augment the coverage of other divisions on Social Media in view of the popularity of that medium to 'share the load'. A huge thanks to Promoters Ribic & Craig Productions, volunteers and the dedicated competitors who keep this sport growing. The Pacific Northwest is a special place when it comes to the NPC community with everybody pitching in to make each others' shows as successful as possible. It's a continued privilege to be able to cover and publicize these shows for decades now. We'll have more on the show here in general as time permits.
