<!-- div.fin_story_media_wrapper --><FIGCAPTION class=caption>Ronnie Coleman poses for a picture with a fan</FIGCAPTION> </FIGURE>EUGENE, Ore. - They call him Mr. O for winning the Mr. Olympia title more times than anyone else.
Fans and aspiring bodybuilders waited in line to meet Ronnie Coleman, a living legend they consider an inspiration to the sport.
Alex Moan wasn't even supposed to work Sunday at Complete Nutrition but said he came in anyway to meet one of his heroes.
"I started bodybuilding, and when I first started I saw videos and shots of Ronnie Coleman, and I thought that was the kind of person I would never grow up to be or ever even meet," he said.
Store owner Jason Harms said Coleman exemplifies everything his business stands for.
Coleman, who is opening up his own supplement company, said he believes in the industry.
"You can never go wrong with the supplements industry because everyone wants something and for the most part they're healthy, and they're a requirement for bodybuilding," he said.
But more than supplements, Coleman said his success comes from hard work.
"It's all about what's in your heart," he said, "and it's all about determination, dedication and desire."
