The Arnold Sports Festival 2024 in the UK in Birmingham was nothing short of drama. Every event had its fair share of intense competition and rivalry between the athletes, with the best winning the respective titles. Along with this, legendary bodybuilders like Ronnie Coleman, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jay Cutler, and more were also present at the event as special guests for a panel discussion.
Apart from the panel discussion, the icons also did photo ops with their fans, providing them with a meet-and-greet opportunity. Any bodybuilding fanatic present at the event would not want to miss out on having a fun conversation with their idols.
After the conclusion of the event, the 8-time Mr. Olympia, Ronnie Coleman, took to Instagram to share an emotional post with his fans. In the IG post, Coleman posed with the recently felicitated Lifetime Achievement Award Winner, Jay Cutler, at the 2024 Arnold Classic.
The two posed for a picture with their fists bumping, donning the YoungLA merchandise, and a very enthusiastic smile. Coleman, in his post, was emotional and thankful to his fans who showed up during the photo op on the weekend of the Arnold Sports Festival, he wrote:
“Here at Arnold Sports Festival with my good buddy @jaycutler. We’re doing photo op team up and the fans are really showing up. Thank you guys for all the love and support you showed us this weekend.”
