- Jimmy Stewart: He cheered at Princeton University as a junior and senior.
- Samuel L. Jackson: Cheered at Morehouse College.
- Ronald Reagan: Cheered at Illinois' Eureka College.
- George W. Bush: Cheered at Yale.
- Steve Martin:

out for his high school team with cheers like, "Die, you gravy-sucking
pigs!"
