2000 NPC USA Bodybuilding Championships Men's Evening

When Bob Cicherillo burst on to the National bodybuilding scene in 1987 industry insiders predicted an exciting future for the Rochester New York Native. Disappointingly, Bob spent the next 11 years glued to the sidelines. Then in 1999 Bob revamped his contest preparations and placed second to King (Shari) Kamali in the Heavyweight class of the NPC Nationals.

Well the minute Bob took the stage at the 2000 NPC USA Championships in Las Vegas was apparent that Bob had done his homework and was there to earn his place in the Pro ranks of the IFBB. See the entire night show and Lonnie Teper’s inspirational words as he announced Bob the victor!
