Can you believe a 50 yr old just qualified in a REGULAR pro contest (not a masters) for the Mr. Olympia?!

ah yes, the phantom eye injury?  photographed fine walking off the plane in helsinki 92, then later reported he hurt his eye ON the plane with a luggage strap.

Did they ever get to the bottom of that one?

that was a unfortunate incident in his pro career.

had he shown up to the 92 stage looking like he did that year at the Arnold Classic, he could have beaten Dorian that year, no question.

Maybe I've just been misinformed this whole time... But aesthetics are supposed to be one of the judging criteria. Yeah?

If they had given the crown to that majestic African prince rather than a white pile of bricks sprayed with Rustoleum, maybe today we'd be talking about if anyone is ever going to come along to beat 3-time Mr. Olympia Dexter Jackson.

Well, if you remember...the incident happened ON the plane! Something about a bag falling out of the upper compartment onto his face/eye. So he wouldnt have, technically, had the eye patch yet!

(God help me, why do I remember this? I mean, I think he's a cool BBer...but I was never a follower of his career.)

He explains the eye-patch in this video. The volume is low, but if you turn it up you can hear it.

He said he was loading his bags on the bus, when the strap hit him in the eye.
