On the Jimmy Kimmel show one time, Tony Hawk was talking about how he spent a lot of his summer playing in his words "Frolf".

matt perry has been spotted at la marada
I'd have to say, so far, the Perry guy [any of several] is WAY the most famous/identifiable/potentially exploitable DG'n $elleb yet mentioned.
MUCH higher-profiled than current #2 GOLFER/Hero Annika S�renstam [and I can identify by sight WAY more famous female athletes than 'celebs', both current and historical, LOL].
SOME of those afore alluded-to Perrys which by now; the original post no longer shows in my 'editor'] once rivaled Princess Di in popularity! :oThat's big!
Also, I might mention to those not disinterested in the topic of coattaildom, dischick is, I believe, remarking on something first reported [above link] by Schweb, so I wouldn't consider that apocrypha, but just...yet...another...of his many...MANY...generously...proffered...most likely in-personally experienced...facTts. :D
Where're the pics, though, anybody, that would help expose! :cool:

Preston putting Hole 10 Long Warwick
Propane Commercials (http://usepropane.com/why)
Click on VIEW THE ENERGY GUYS to see the commercials if you haven't already seen them all over TV. Preston Simpson PDGA#15600
Dan Warner plays 'Propane' and John Hemphill plays 'Electricity' in those spots. What does this guy play? Or was he with the ad agency?

LMAO. Well I don't know who they are, but I was told that this was Preston. I do know that he has done other commercials and was in a movie once (Remake of Godzilla).He played baby godzilla. LOL I have heard a few people talk about it being him. I only met him once, so I don't remember well enough what he looks like, but I have a few pics and it does look like him. LOL Guess I should have researched it better. Doh!
Well we almost had another famous discgolfer :D
Preston is famous for getting sprayed by a skunk while camping before Animalfest 2003 if I remember right. He was in my group the first day, peeyewww! :D

"Malcolm in the Middle" Frankie Muniz is #20122, and he competes on a limited basis too.
I played with Frankie Muniz last year at World Doubles in San Saba (and saw him there again this year). But he's definitely not the same Frankie Muniz from Malcolm in the Middle.
This Frankie is a 40-something year old Mexican man from the Rio Grande Valley in south Texas.
