Title: 2008 Arnold Classic! 20th Anniv! All winners should be there!
Post by: Ron on November 07, 2007, 02:14:47 PM

For the Arnold Classic at the end of February 2008, for the 20th anniversary of the event, it would be great to get a picture of all 12 winners and see them on stage! Well, that just may happen!

For the record, the 12 winners of the show are:

1 - Rich Gaspari (1989)
2 - Mike Ashley (1990)
3 - Shawn Ray (1991)
4 - Vince Taylor (1992)
5 - Flex Wheeler (1993, 1997, 1998, 2000)
6 - Kevin Levrone (1994, 1996)
7 - Mike Francois (1995)
8 - Nasser El Sonbaty (1999)
9 - Ronnie Coleman (2001)
10 - Jay Cutler (2002, 2003, 2004)
11 - Dexter Jackson (2005, 2006)
12 - Victor Martinez (2007)

When you're of average height walking around the expo and feel tall, you might get a feeling it's a short man's sport.  ;D

I'm thinking of going to the Arnold...depends if I decide to take a bunch of math courses next semester or not.

Well, a picture with the 12 of them on stage with Arnold himself and Jim Lorimer would be one of the most memorable pictures of the year!

Yes, but no picture will beat the one when all the Olympia winners from Larry Scott to Dorian Yates appeared on stage at the '95 Masters Olympia.  8)

So true Adela.. but I can guarantee you it won't happen for the Fitness competitors, as one of them just really cannot make it there no matter what...

Ok, here goes the winners for the Fitness International.

1 - Carol Semple-Marzetta (1997)
2 - Susie Curry (1998, 1999, 2002, 2003)
3 - Kelly Ryan (2000)
4 - Jenny Worth (2001)
5 - Adela Garcia (2004, 2006)
6 - Jen Henderschott (2005)
7 - Kim Klein (2007)

Here goes for the Figure International...

1 - Jenny Lynn (2003, 2004, 2005)
2 - Mary Elizabeth Lado (2006, 2007)

And for the Ms. International

1 - Erica Geisen (1986)
2 - Cathey Palyo (1988)
3 - Tonya Knight (1989, 1991)
4 - Laura Creavalle (1990, 1994, 1995)
5 - Anja Schreiner (1992)
6 - Kim Chivesky (1993, 1996)
7 - Yolanda Hughes (1997, 1998)

9 - Yaxeni Oriquen (2002, 2003, 2005)

Question whether Jackie Paisley is entitled for the win in the 1989 Ms. International as Tonya has to forfeit later on.

1 - Rich Gaspari (1989)

I saw Gaspari this weekend at the Coloso Expo in Mexico City, promoting his supplements.  Gustavo Badell was there too signing autographs.   Gustavo didn't look too well, sucking oxygen from a mask.  It is 7000 feet, but still.  At the beginning he would breath through the mask now and then.  But after an hour, he had it on full time and still seemed in distress.   All for 50 pesos (about $4.50) per autographed photo.

Big deal.  It's not like he's climbing in the Andes... 20 million people live there, and they don't seem to have any trouble breathing.  It you have problems at only 7k ft, you're in extremely shitty shape.  These guys are the epitome of "unhealthy".
