Who is the most famous person to come out of the "U"?

Other than myself, I would have to say Tay Zonday.

I have a buddy who is the head of corp comm at a pretty big software company out West and they hired Minnesota's own Tay Zonday to do a viral music video to pimp the software. It was a big hit and my buddy said Zonday was a professional the entire time. You gotta give the guy credit, he's sure used a new medium to build an unorthodox career.

Go Gophers!!
