This was the song that was playing in the background when Titus filled Monica Brant with his positivity... even the gods were cheering.  8)

The head judge doesn't get to vote, unless it is a tie, if I recall correctly.

Also, judges obviously liked taller "athletes".

Think about '79 when Mentzer lost to Zane.

While amazing in 1981, I still think that it was Tom Platz's show that night.

THe head judge does vote most of the time. It mainly depends of the number of judges.

I have acted as a head judge & voted
And it is common for head judge to vote

Also Mentzer & Zane were of a similar height.
Not like one was 6ft 2in & the other 5ft 4in.

Okay, then I will do something that most GetBiggers never say:  "I don't know."

I only worked for Roger for 3 years while I was in grad school, as a trainer at his ultra awesome gym.
Not like one was 6ft 2in & the other 5ft 4in.

Not a problem - just a slightly odd statement from him given Danny's placings

i agree he did have one of the best all round physiques ever regardless of height
or lack of it.

Miniature Schwarzenegger.  Should have won at least one Olympia.  One of the all time greats, which cannot be said about such crapeze arteests as Phildo.

Was also a really nice guy. Ran into him once at an airport in the 80',s and he spent a half hour chatting about bodybuilding and his experiences. Couldn't have been nicer.

your brother in Christ,

Padilla or Platz winning in 1981 would have been fine. Columbu winning was a travesty.

yep - Platz would have been a worthy winner in '81 too, no doubt.

I had Tom winning & Danny a very close 2nd.

Franco in 4th - 5th place.

I saw Danny guest pose in the early 80's. He had perfect proportion's and was huge. I would guess he was around 200lbs, but looked a lot bigger.
