Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below ronnie colman- at local gym it was off season and he was a guest at a local show. He was actually bigger than I thought he would be. He was also ignorant and slow! Also like above, Bill kazmier- a buddy of mine used to work out with him occasionally at the gym that Kaz owned-he has to be the strongest s.o.b on the plannet!
What Professional Bodybuilder Have You Met?

I love this thread.
Psychologically (and personally), it is interesting how the different pros are considered by those who have met them...and what they probably are in real life.
Macster, besides yourself, has anybody met Nassar? From the way your describe him, this man has his sh*t together. An accomplished pro...and a decent person who knows who he is and what he expects in this life.
Okay. Maybe a fanatic? But accomplished. And did he step over any dead bodies to get to his level of achievement?

Living here in southern Cali you get to see a lot of these guys all over the place especially in the clubs.
I've met and partied numerous times with Chris Cormier. He's a real cool guy and a totall party aniaml. Partied with Jay Cutler in Orange county a couple of years ago. He's real nice guy and fucken HUGE! Met Dorian Yates and Milos Sarcev in Vegas this past year at Mr. USA (met them at Drais in L.V). Flex Wheller at Gold's Gym in Venice, along with Ronnie Coleman and Lee Priest.

"I've met a lot, they were all nice guys. The only one I had a problem with, I unfortunately had to deal with on a daily basis. I won't say his name, but he's shorter than Priest and is Italian. I'll just say, we didn't get along very well."
Joe Pesci is not a bodybuilder. He just uses halo whenever he is training to beat down a guy with a telephone, slam his head in a car door and then put his head on a curb and stomp his teeth out.
Oh, I met Magnus Ver Magnusson. he is really cool and took time to anwer alot of questions. he is also pretty funny. he was tall but bit smaller than i'd expected. there were a bunch of local bodybuilders there, and magnus was laughing because all of them were standing next to him and puffing out their chests to show that they were thicker than him.
As for certain pros being pricks because they don't talk alot, you have to realize that maybe they just don't talk alot.

Shook hands with Arnold in the Santa Monica Mall,Christmas 98'.No bodyguards and was surprised how nobody seemed to make a big deal about his presence.He was with a young child and a woman (not Maria) and they were getting christmas pictures in one of those setups in the middle of the mall.You would think a super celebrity muti-millionaire would choose some place different.I saw one guy ask if he could take a picture and Arnold said no.So I walked up to him and sad "Uh...I dont want to take your picture or anything,I just wanted to shake your hand".He put out his hand and said "How you dooing" like the Terminator.It was pretty cool. He had a scruffy beard and was kinda hunched over and wearing this old granpa button up sweater,still a big framed man though to me(im 5'9).Impressive man with lots of charisma even when hes tired looking.
Met Magnus Ver Magnusson .He works as a bouncer part-time in a titty bar called Goldfinger in Kopavor,Iceland.Real nice guy.As impressive to me as Arnold.Suprisingly smaller than I expected for being aguably the greatest strongman ever.Looked about 6'2 240.Okay I know thats not small by anyones standard but I expected someone Shaq sized.He is by far my favorite strength athlete.Some people in Iceland think John Paul Sigmundson was greater though.

This is indeed a cool thread, here's my contribution:
1) Chris Cormier: laid back as hell.
2) Nasser: Great guy, took a picture with him and he took the
time to talk and socialize...
3) Tom Prince, Frank Sepe, Milos Sarcev, the Met-Rx guys ...
Prince is the man, and Sepe was okay.
4) Eddie Robinson: he is an old favorite of mine and he was
a funny funny guy when I met him.
5) Vince Taylor: caught him while he was rushing off somewhere,
but he was cordial enough to get a quick photo with me, I
thought that was pretty cool.
There are more, but I can't remember them right now. There
weren't too many bad experiences with pros, they are generally
decent folk who'll be cool if you avoid the "what do you do for
biceps?" questions...
