For instance:

Richard Gere – Won gymnastics scholarship in high school in Syracuse

Bono – School chess champion

Ron Howard – Married since 1975 to his high school sweetheart (seems a little too Happy Days-ish if you ask me)

Angie Everhart – Was her high school mascot (not a bad mascot if you ask me)

Weird Al Yankovic – Valedictorian (I would have thought class clown)

Richard Deen Anderson – Broke both arms in a high school hockey game.

Gillian Anderson – Voted most likely to be arrested
