Could have won the Olympia

[tommywishbone]

This cat's name seldom gets mentioned on the list of lesser known guys who could COULD have won the Mr Olympia. I know, I know, dude's a peter puffer, butt pirate, etc. Still, crazy physique.

tommy what do you feel about funding some heme-iron research studies since you are a millionare

[tommywishbone]

   

Johnny, I was a millonaire. That money is long gone. I'm a working man now, like most everyone else.

Heme iron research? Brother, I really wouldn't know where to start when it comes to obtaining funding for such a study. I would think a call/email to any large University that has a Medical School affiliation could get you pointed in the right direction. Good luck my friend.

I have no clue who he is.  Great upper body though.

When Bruce first came out Bob Kennedy was comparing him to Arnold in Musclemag. Big things were expected of him. He was getting hype every mouth. Then Bruce decided to get his pole greased on film, and Bob had egg on his face.

Bruce "Thunder" Patterson, overshadowed by Chris Duffy on the gay for pay scene. He always reminded me of a larger more polished Craig Titus.

decent upper body. But, the 90s were too stacked with people way better than him. Never really was that impressed by Bruce "The Spruce" Patterson.

Why did he go that route if he was so "promising"?

Pole polishing was just too tempting and couldn't pass up

"Was" a millionaire

Lives in SoCal, involved with the Venice scene

Friends with a guy who's about to go in the slammer..

Bbing circle/life for sure

My guess : all a bunch of drug dealers

Same reason Kai keeps going that route

[Parker]

Same reason Kai keeps going that route

Yet Kai is an Arnold Classic Winner, and has beaten Phil Heath in that title and is 2nd in the World.
Bruce is nothing more that a footnote in the stuck together pages of "IFBB Schmoe and Tell #2".

yup,   the evolution of bodybuilding.

Bob Paris could have been the best spokesman for this sport since Arnold.   he announced he was gay - did nothing homo in public, so creepy pix, just stated he had a male partner. that was it , his career was over.

now it's like its rewarded.

Negative sir, not my bread any way.  No offense taken by the way.  

Patterson had a few things going for him that the other real contenders didn't; he was white and good looking and Weider always loved pushing that image. Couple more shots of Bruce. Oh, he had a crazy hot girlfriend before he became "The Flaming Fire fighter" or whatever his first video was called.

   I certainly remember Jennifer. Very attractive blond, but not her. Her name was Michelle Herring. Runway & print model. Worked a lot. Stunning. She must be married and her name has changed because I can not find a trace of her.

but he did date her once he moved to conners bedroom  LA no?

[tommywishbone]

   You can't prove that.  

Ya known HB, I don't remember Bruce dating Jennifer but when you mentined it- it sort of sounded familiar and it sounded right, but I can't say 100%. She did date several "up & cumming coming" bodybuilders.

I do remember personally introducing Bruce to Ed Connors. I was a company man all the way.   And NO I did not take one for the team.
