Found 5 slides of Roger Walker posing at the 1980 Mr Olympia. Scanned them with my Epson 850 Pro and then edited the photos in Photoshop. Photos were overexposed that evening. Anyway, nice to see more photos of Roger Walker.

Finally, we can all agree on something.  ;D

I don't know just how overrated as a bodybuilder Mr. Ken Waller was ...but he sure was a household name within the industry and even show biz...

The fact he placed dead last at the Opera House Sydney Australia October 4th, 1980, Olympia gives him legendary status right away ...

Hoping the footage gets released before his passing

He is the biggest loser in athletic or beauty pageant (whichever you consider bodybuilding) history. I know of no one on record as having such a meltdown after a loss, especially for someone in 5th place. The man literally went batshit crazy and had to be institutionalized only to reemerge later and dedicate his whole life to whining about how he was cheated decades earlier. All for what? A plastic trophy and a $1,000 check.


Yes totally correct & we have idiotic Mentzer nut huggers on here still whinning & crying
He got 5th place.  ::)  Fucking idiotic babies. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣   Grow the Fuck up.
