Fun fact: the Big Mac was actually invented about a mile away from my house.

It's a little known fact. Not too many people actually know that the Big Mac was invented in suburban Pittsburgh.

That's awesome! :D

 

I don't know what went on in my neighborhood...except it was an old fishing town.

 

When I was a kid, however, I lived in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, shared a birthday with Jackie Gleason, and also had an interest in buses.

 

I also watched the Three Stooges a lot as a kid. They too are from Bensonhurst.

The Big Mac was created by Jim Delligatti, an early Ray Kroc franchisee, who was operating several restaurants in the Pittsburgh area. It was invented in the kitchen of Delligatti's first McDonald's franchise, located on McKnight Road in suburban Ross Township. The Big Mac had two previous names, both of which failed in the marketplace: the Aristocrat, which consumers found difficult to pronounce and understand, and Blue Ribbon Burger. The third name, Big Mac, was created by Esther Glickstein Rose, a 21-year-old advertising secretary who worked at McDonald’s corporate headquarters in Oak Brook, Illinois. The Big Mac debuted at Delligatti's Uniontown, Pennsylvania restaurant in 1967, selling for 45 cents. It was designed to compete with Big Boy restaurants' Big Boy sandwich; Eat'n Park was the Pittsburgh area's Big Boy franchisee at the time. The Big Mac proved popular, and it was added to the menu of all U.S. restaurants in 1968.

The only person that I can think of from my neighborhood who's famous is NFLer Lavar Arrington, who actually graduated from the same high school I did.

From the metropolitan area of Pittsburgh, the list of celebrities is endless.

For a forgotten borough, Staten Island has quite the rep as well. Wu-Tang Clan, Christina Aguilera, Paul Newman, and Steven Seagal are just the start of it.

 

But, New York is New York. I don't think there are many other places that can keep up with it. Doesn't matter what borough, neighborhood, or school it is. Someone famous was probably there already.

 

My high school had Robert Loggia, and someone OD should know, a guy by the name of Nick Fotiu.

 

My college had the comic store owner from "The Big Bang Theory" (Kevin Sussman), and Gene Freakin' Simmons.
