ChevyVanMiller Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) I was reading through a list of actors from Buffalo and was surprised to learn that Sorrell Booke, Boss Hogg himself, is from Olean. Had I known that earlier, I would have rooted a little harder for him to catch those Duke boys. (Also just read that he's a cousin of Max Yasgur of Woodstock fame) Edited February 6, 2016 by ChevyVanMiller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 And Christine Baranski, William Fichtner (huge Sabres fan), the guy who played Dale on The Walking Dead, Jeffrey Jones, Wendy Malick. Also, John Basilone and Bill Donovan were from Buffalo. (Donovan ran the OSS in World War 2. Anyone who doesn't know who Basilone is can just !@#$ off.)
