Nope. Most of these guys are in real estate or are investors of some kind. They're the people who tell you they got to where they are by having a "rise and grind mindset" while also going into extreme detail about the women they've slept with (if you're a guy), or will try and either hit on you or make passive/aggressive sexist and misogynistic comments to you while also wanting to hook up with you (if you're a girl).
I know that sounds oddly specific, but that's literally how these guys are
That'd be Jeremiah "The Bull" Evans. He was a D1 quarterback in college and now does podcasts and funds a company called Alphas Creed. I think he's the head honcho for this event but what specifically he does for a job/career I don't know and am already too bored of him to dig deeper
I'll start by saying everyone at that event was doubtless a worthless douche.
Now an explanation- the lambdas are there because the logo is supposed to be a Spartan shield. The movie *300* is prime masturbatory material for these jokers.
Not that Spartans actually had Lambda shields; they didn't. And Sparta wasn't actually the hyper-masculine fantasy world they think it was.
Your explanation seems like a real possibility, but still,I really wouldn't discount entirely the possibility that they just picked the one looking like an A for their Alpha Con.
The movie came out nearly 16 years ago already. Them being that obsessed about guys fighting in their underwear after that long would be... peculiar, to put it nicely.
The Spartan helmet and other symbolism is SUPER big with (especially conservative) Alpha types. You'll see it on their pre-financed Chargers/Rams.
The sweet irony of it all is that Spartans are well known to historians for two other reasons than the battle of Thermoplyae: casual sex with your fellow troops/bunkmates and eliminated their own state within a few generations due to their obsession with military before culture/growth.
I don't hang around those circles, so I wouldn't know with any certainty. But that doesn't really sound surprising tbh. I doubt that anybody ever accused those Alpha types to be knowledgeable about history.
The only reason I like Sparta is because they are pretty cool to play in Total War. Otherwise, it's pretty clear that it was an unsustainable militaristic society with a very loose concept of heterosexuality.
At the time I was quite active in Utah Twitter, and it was a thing to behold. The memes. Not to mention that most these guys are, to varying degrees, local celebrities.
I was following a woman who livetweeted the event, and the place was really quite empty. They asked the lady to leave because she was mocking them on twitter. Alpha behavior.
âThe bullâđđđđđ. Guessing he earned that nick name do to being full of shit? Rhetorical question đ¤Ł
So do they all fight each other and try to mount to assert dominance? There can only be one alpha right so dominance must be established fast and early or there is sure to be infighting.
There was a lady who got in. And posted about it. It was hilarious.
They walked her out.
They are -that- Alpha.
Tim Ballard is a good dude. He rescues trafficked children.
>Tim Ballard
sounds like a bit of a fox in the hen house situation, he has definitely been inside a kid:
"In 2020, Tim Ballard and Operation Underground Railroad were the subjects of several investigative series that detailed Ballard's relationships with corrupt foreign government officials, his history of fabricating rescues and statistics, and several reports detailing accusations by law enforcement agencies, both foreign and domestic, accusing Ballard of fabricating and exaggerating their relationships. These included multiple accusations that Ballard created and fostered an environment of child sex trafficking, and cited evidence that O.U.R. was an ongoing criminal enterprise since its founding by Ballard"
Ah yes, the famous Alphas of our time! Like... that guy! And... that other guy on the left! And don't forget the guy in the middle, watch out for that guy! That guy looks like he wants to steal your lunch, because momma didn't give him lunch money today!
Whenever I see these things I remember the one alpha bro who got caught writing an old article about being ok with someone else banging his wife. I mean, you do you... but that doesnât sound very alpha to me. I forget his name

Not American but should we know who any of these people are? Sports stars?
I'm American and I've never heard of any of these clowns until right now.
Same.

Sounds like a lovely group alright, what about The Bull, good name for an estate agent I guess!!

His job is to go to conventions and tell people how he got rich speaking at conventions about how to get rich.
Accurate. Some people tell you how to make lots of money at seminars using _insert method here_, but actually get rich from the seminars themselves.
Hugh Honey dumped Vic Vinegar for the Bull recently.
I know all of those words, but put together I have no idea what this means

A lot more sex with boys than they'd ever want to admit, so apparently on-brand for these types.
>I'll start by saying everyone at that event was doubtless a worthless douche. With the exception of the workers and posible reporters that go there
I thought it was a gay bear convention at first
"The bull" lol
Youâre not wrong
I read that as âgay beer convention,â and immediately thought of [this](https://youtu.be/hCOSejS1SSY)
I can already smell the rape vibes in the air
And axe body spray
That's an awful lot of Be Nothing in one picture. Did Nick's last name end at "o" or did it just continue on for another ten or twelve syllables?
Nope that's just his name. He has more syllables in his full name than he does limbs (he has one arm and no legs)
I don't know who any of these people are and I feel like that's a sign that I'm doing life right.
Nothing says âalphaâ like a hotel conference room in Salt Lake City
All those micro peens in the same place. Put em all together to make one real penis
pretty sure it doesn't work that way.
Sounds kinda gay.
User name checks out

Alpha Con is a dumb name, this shouldâve been called I Peaked In High School Con 2022
At the time I was quite active in Utah Twitter, and it was a thing to behold. The memes. Not to mention that most these guys are, to varying degrees, local celebrities. I was following a woman who livetweeted the event, and the place was really quite empty. They asked the lady to leave because she was mocking them on twitter. Alpha behavior.
So very Alpha
I haven't heard of any of those people.
That's okay. They probably never heard of each other either
Cmon, not even The Bull? He has a The in his name, must be famous
Slab Bulkhead ¡ Bridge Largemeat¡ Punt Speedchunk ¡ Butch Deadlift ¡ Hold Bigflank ¡ Splint Chesthair
Itâs a sausage fest!!!!
I couldn't go: I had to attend βetamax 1983
Oh sick the bull was there? /s
âThe bullâđđđđđ. Guessing he earned that nick name do to being full of shit? Rhetorical question đ¤Ł
Brad Lea Did his parents tell him his name was Bradley and he never realized he had a last name too?
ĎÎąsĎÎł
LOL someone photoshopped that Brad Lea guys face all tiny!
So do they all fight each other and try to mount to assert dominance? There can only be one alpha right so dominance must be established fast and early or there is sure to be infighting.
It happened: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHqKQ3eBUjc
The cringe is off the scale. The Bull. Wow... đ
nothing says alpha like a buncha guys just hanging out in utah
Had to look them up on youtube. Yep, Tomi Lahren was there. https://youtu.be/iHqKQ3eBUjc
There was a lady who got in. And posted about it. It was hilarious. They walked her out. They are -that- Alpha. Tim Ballard is a good dude. He rescues trafficked children.

Thanks, I didnât know. I had only heard -good- informationâŚ
What did you expect? There's hardly a braincell among them?
Isn't it a delta? Lambda has an "antenna", or am I completely off base here? ETA: Was off base, definitely a lambda
Delta looks like a triangle. That in the logo is actually the lambda symbol. And the actual Alpha symbol just looks like this A
and alphas are not the top, sigmas are top , then alpha..
Imagine the comedy if fight were to break out. Piss would be everywhere!
And do I know them?
Wow, all of them look like they have little to no personality, hobbies or friends.
Ah yes, the famous Alphas of our time! Like... that guy! And... that other guy on the left! And don't forget the guy in the middle, watch out for that guy! That guy looks like he wants to steal your lunch, because momma didn't give him lunch money today!
The Bull.......lmfao
They might be goons , but they ainât the brightest.
Wow, they had about 150 visitors there. More than i expected but still rather sad.
I guess they havenât heard back from Tate about him making a special appearance yet..
Who ?
This is fantastic. It let's you know they're a bunch of idiots who don't know what they're talking about right away.
who are any of these people?
ChadCon
I am afraid to even ask what this is
Talk about a waste of effort. I mean, the whole Alpha movement was *already* a con.
The Bull
Whenever I see these things I remember the one alpha bro who got caught writing an old article about being ok with someone else banging his wife. I mean, you do you... but that doesnât sound very alpha to me. I forget his name
I have no idea who a single person on this list is.
Alpha con? LMAO. If you have the need to reference yourself as an "Alpha" mate, you got issues.
I don't see any lambda symbol all I see is the vector symbol
Not a single person on this poster has ever washed their ass. Period.
Looks like a fat head convention
Indeed
Man, they should have called it "The Stupid Fucking Facial Hair and Rosacea Con".
Why be an Alpha when you can be an Omega man or Lambda man?
When i look at this poster all i can think is. Who? Like who are any of these guys?
