Casting director Jodi Thomas said “Biggest Loser” came knocking on San Antonio's door because it's consistently listed as a top-10 fattest city and because the show had never looked for contestants here before

I was tempted to go try out but as a single mom being away from my daughter for that long just isn't happening.


Good luck to everyone who did though.

Maybe my Friends Ex-wife can be there, She had some one take care of her and kids while she loafed around all day only to get greedy and loose it all.

I dont think a fat guy will get casted, but a pudgy good looking charismatic enigma might hhmmm....

210 SA covered the auditions via the long, long line.

I think you meant the long, wide line.

Hehe, at the start of the video there were a few people trying to navigate the crowd...

One of my best girlfriends tried out last year or the year before. I recall that she made it to the "2nd" round of callbacks but was then not contacted. She was asked for family and friend references so that the casting directors could get to know her through those that are close to her.

I was ready to giver her a great recommendation but never even received a call, oh well.

She moved to a downtown area of a large city and has since lost 30 pounds due to work hours, walking and better eating habits.

Hubby stood in line early morning and was the 20th person in line. He had the opportunity to talk to the casting folks and he was outta there around 10:30 am.

All I can say is they won't have difficulty finding contestants.

Exactly - I wish I had some kind of Biggest Loser contestant tracking device to stick to people blocking the ailes at HEB. It'd be kind of like the collars they stick on bears and squirrels, the producers could go track the prospective contestants down with a GPS or radio monitor.
