I bet 30-40% could name at least one other bodybuilder.  I also bet that the majority of those names would be bodybuilders from the Haney era or before.  Not too many common people know the names of the pros today.

How many cyclists can you name other than lance armstrong.  How many world class swimmers can you name.  How many world class wrestlers.  How many US athletes can you name that will be in china next year for the olympics?    RETARDED THREAD

most people go for the health look these days, their joints are destroyed after years of pushing the heavy iron.

I think a more interesting question is this:

How many Getbig posters can the general population name, besides Bluto?

No, im just saying that there are tons of legitimate sports( the majority of olympic events)  where the general population has no idea who competes.

No.  30-40% could name a bodybuilder, which is what you posted originally.  I'd guess only 1 in 10 or less could name a current Pro bodybuilder.

30-40% of the population couldn't even tell you the first three lines of the national anthem

30-40% of people you see at your local gym can't even name one bodybuilder

hahaha wtf is this guy smoking
