....at Billy's Backyard Meets. Of course, there is a vast difference between the accuracy of someone's spelling, while posting an opinion, and weights used to set State or National Records in Powerlifting...

On a more serious note, one time I did have somebody suggest that the weights we were using at a Meet were "heavy." Until I pointed out that our weights were weighed on a physician's scale, which is in turn regularly re-certified by the Cream City Scale Company. Another reality, is that most of the 45's at their local YMCA happen to weigh only 42 Lbs, so of course, once you load 6 of those on the bar, you are actually 18 pounds short of the 315 Lbs. you think you have on there....
