    Favorite Golden Era Body-builder.....

    I actually prefer some of their physiques to the mass monsters of today.

    Here's a good one:

    I've always been more partial to the Lee Labradas and Bob Paris, or Serge Nubrets of the BB world.

    I met Frank Zane. I always loved him until I met him, he is a dick. Lou Ferrigno is the biggest asshole ever though.

    Agree^ You can't even shake his hand at conventions or take a picture without paying.

    Yup..... my friend said he was THE ONLY guy at the olympia charging for his pictures. What a dick.....

    Rich Gaspari sucks big balls too..... he's good friends with a familly friend and he was still a dick to us. He acted like he had better shit to do, and i'm sure he did, but it takes two seconds to say hello and shake a hand with a smile.
