I met Tim once ... a day or two before he won the 1981 Mr. America title.
A mutual friend asked me if I would drive himself and Tim to the grocery store to do some last minute shopping.
During that drive and shopping experience Tim impressed me as a humble and quiet individual who was determined to win the Mr. A title.
OH yea! The main items purchased were those very dry puffed wheat/ rice cakes. A good number of them. And other minor stuff that I cam't recall.
Definitely not long enough to form a valid opinion ... but I can assure you that he was never UNDER-RATED.
And I can also assure you that insulin got a boost of interest in 1981 which may or may not have been due to Tim's involvement.
