That would have been funny.

Does anyone have a link to Alan Fortney's Facebook page?

I met that Fortney guy at an expo. Many years ago. I saw his nametag and did a double take.

He was extremely pleasant. Just a likeable fellow.

This is very sad news.

RIP

I met Alan in the late 90's at Chad Nichols Missouri Bodybuilding Championships. Alan was in town to see Chad the "Diet Doctor". Al seemed really disappointed after meeting with Chad, said Chad didn't want to see his physique and just gave him a "cookie cutter" drug protocol, also told him he was eating too clean and needed to eat more McDonalds. Alan was a construction laborer and couldn't afford the prescribed gear and especially the high amount of HGH.

At the evening show Al's girlfriend came out of their hotel room and said Al wasn't ready yet had tried on several shirts and thought all of them made him look small. Eventually he came out with a sleeveless flannel and was the biggest guy in the room, he was weighing 290lbs at the time. During the evening show Nasser guest posed at ~300lbs and Al said "Why doesn't my 290 look like that?".

Alan was a very nice respectable guy, but at least at that time in his life he just didn't seem comfortable in his "Gorilla suit".

C'mon now. It was clearly a joke from my end. Look at my posts in the thread and draw your conclusion. You must have been hanging out with Prime recently.

Root beer is what’s on offer.

Right now I’m jamming ... Again Shall Be by Hades. An underappreciated gem of grim and cold metal.
