Hey, if you look on the tv when they show the weather report in the first movie you'll see my name and here them say it. Elgin is a town in Illinois where the Elgin Clock Company originated and is still today! (no my parents did not name me after the company, Elgin is a family name. Honest!)
Anyways, in Watertown the biggest celebrity we've had in a while would have to be Rico Brogna of NY Yankees fame!
Oh we also have a few bands like
TRIPSET &
SUBMIT who hail from Watertown, CT.
And pop singer John Mayer is from CT.
Also, James Van Der Beek aka Dawson on Dawsons Creek went to school a few towns over.
Then of course we have all the people who are famous and have houses in CT, like David Letterman, Dustin Hoffman, and Martha Stewart for starters.
Oh and remember that reallly tall hockey player who was talked about in another thread, yeah well he lives or lived in West Hartford CT.
