Bigkiwi and Ronnie back in the day

[BIGKIWI]

Thought would put up shot of me and Ronnie from 2002 I think was looking photos other day

[tomsammce]

what was this for J? an event or expo..

[BIGKIWI]

He did a guest pose in Wellington right after winning the Olympia and we were having a news conference. I must been 25-26 then back when I was a big boy

awesome! woulda been a buzz to meet him in that condition, thats when he was at his best people say 2001 till 2004 or somethinglike that.

I've met him twice, in 2000 at NZFBB Nationals backstage when he guest posed & in 2009 when I was training at Paul & Carol Graham's Gym in Coogee.

Awesome acheivements no doubt, (the best to be frank in terms of the O), but could learn a lot in the PR areas from the WSM guys. Seems like all he's into these days is pimping $10 photos while trying to stay awake.

That said I'd love to see him do what he does best and make a comeback.

LOL - no!

Ronnie was selling signed ones for $10 (I actually bought one for my mate who was getting married over there, he was stoked "Best wishes for your wedding from Ronnie" kinda thing. Cool pic, probably worth the $10).

Pretty sure he was charging others for snapshots with him though.

He laughed though when I told him that he was the reason I quit bodybuilding! :grin: LOL long story....

Must have been because you weren't interested in building a all natural physique like Big Ron...
