Yes, this should be a sticky at the top of the forum. Please don't spoil the thread with rubbish and crap. Larry was too classy to deserve that sort of treatment.

He and Freddy Ortiz were both known for their arms but Larry had the more complete physique so ended up winning more than Freddy did. The shot outside Vince's Gym is famous. You can see Don Peters looking on from behind the gym in the distance.

Vince stop riding Larry's coattails to make yourself feel important.

Larry was known by everyone who lifted weights in the old days.

Larry won the first two Olympias rather easily. Then he stopped competing. We all wondered if it was because of the arrival of Sergio Oliva.

I can"t even imagine the fans stomping their feet and chanting a bodybuilders' name at a contest these days. I heard Bill Pearl tell a similar story. What happened? These days even fans make fun of the top guys and have little respect for them.

At the tender age of 75 too. Easily because of roids!

Robert Nailon sent me a photo tribute to Larry Scott. They trained together in 1979. Larry gave a seminar at my gym and it was well attended and received. Simply the best seminar any bodybuilder gave in Sydney. Robert did the drawing of Larry and I had it at my gym. That is why we are all posing with it. Must find the original photo and edit it.
