So the most famous person in Presque Isle county is some dude from ossenieke who made dinosaur gardens?

Gotta be local tie there somewhere? basically the reason Alpena and Presque Isle counties are on the map.

Three Rivers.

Jordan Weiber, she'll be even more famous if Nassar put his hands on her, hopefully that's not the case.

Betsy Rivers or Wild Bill Milliken. Its a toss-up.

I'm surprised that Paul Carey got the Isabella nod over John Engler (pride of Beal City).

Me? I'm stuck with Kid Rock based on where I live now, or David Spade based on where I grew up.
