The three non Darius Rucker members of Hootie and the Blowfish are Redskins fans. They played Hail to the Redskins on the set of NFL Sunday Countdown about 10 years ago and Darius sat there shaking his head and pointing at a Dolphins hat. Also, they sang the national anthem at the last game of the 1999 season (Jan, 2000) which was against the Dolphins.

Also the fat guy on that sitcom "Yes Dear" -you know the one with the chick from Uncle Buck, is always wearing Redskins gear. I think his character on the show is suppossed to be from Frostburg, Maryland.

Also, I don't know if this qualifies as being a Redskins fan, but Robert Duvall has said he based his character in Lonesome Dove on Sammy Baugh, who he met at the QB's Texas ranch at some point. Duvall also references Baugh at the very end of the film "Tender Mercies".

Also, the husband on the 80's sitcom "227" often wore a Redskins jacket as the show was set in D.C. That was the show with the sassy maid from "The Jeffersons."

Former Director of Central Intelligence Richard Helms was a huge fan. Jack Kent Cooke said he was the most football savvy politician he ever had in his box.

Also, Bernard Shaw and Leslie Stahl of newsreading fame are fans.
