Well I don't live in Orlando so I dont have a 50 person list. This should of been an actual small (ish) town thing because obviously there are gonna be famous people from a huge city.

Anyway there was a Vice President from my 30,000 person town. I don't wanna give away which one though....hmmm...

When my dad worked at Domino's, he used to deliver pizzas to Jim Varney all the time. So...

Jim Varney, actor (Ernest movies) -- he lived out near the foothills between here and Hendersonville
Johnny Knoxville, actor/stunt man (Jackass, Men in Black 2) -- he lived somewhere close by

Those are the only people I'm aware of :?
