Title: Question About Guy in Pumping Iron
Post by: Undisputed on November 24, 2007, 07:41:53 PM
In the begining of the movie when Arnold goes to the gym and says he wants to "start building some muscles," there's a guy standing behind the counter eating an orange who Arnold refers to as 'Big Tony'.....Who was that guy?  Someone well known in the scene back then, or just some giggling oaf eating an orange?

That guy was awesome and clearly stoned to the fullest! I asked this question about a year ago here and heard he was a guy who liked to fight. Basically all I remember...

big tony was laughing at Arnold's T shirt.  Notice Arnold is wearing the Arnold is Numero Uno shirt, but they just don't show the front because they are saving that for the end of the film

so what you're saying is that when arnold said, "i want to build some muscles" he was talking directly to tony?

Leafy Slug you should really stay out of threads you ave no business in.  Stick with the gay threads and things you know about.  You just embarrass yourself.  What do you think your mom would think if she knew.

Haha - that's what I thought the first time I watched Pumping Iron. I thought he had one of those faces that just asks to be punched.

Not that I would of course, he'd probably kick the crap outta me.
