I believe several former NFL Catamounts can lay claim to that fame, not to mention Kenneth Hughes, co-CEO of Dixon Hughes CPA in Asheville, NC, James Lanning, President/CEO of Ingles, Inc., and especially Wallace N. Hyde, Democratic delegate in North Carolina for many years.

Yeah...all failures

Let me guess, no cookout eh? going "hiking" again?
