Alvin stands at 6'4" and plays the power forward position. But during his amateur days, he also played center position with ease. His style of play is somewhat comparable to Karl Malone, rugged physical play but with finesse.
He has a reputation for being one of the most beloved players in Philippine basketball and probably the second most popular player behind Robert Jaworski.
Apart from being a basketball player, he is also an endorser of many products such as Purefoods, Swatch, Lipovitan, Kaypee Shoes (during his first few years as a pro player), Nike, etc. He appeared in a political ad campaign for Senator Manny Villar.
In 1991, he signed a 5-year 25 million peso offer sheet from cellar-dwelling PBA ballclub the Pepsi Hotshots which was matched by his mother ballclub the Purefoods TJ Hotdogs. Patrimonio's new contract ushered the era of the multi-millionaire players.
