Gene Hackman was the coach in the Replacements, of course he's a fan!!

Seriously though, who knows how half of these were "verified"

Never saw 'The Replacements'. Someone else said it was based loosely on the Redskins.

I do know that Gene Hackman wore a Redskins coat in a movie with Dan Ackroyd -- the plot took place in D.C.

"Loose Cannons" was the movie -- a cinematic masterpiece I might add.

Hackman was great in another DC movie...DC Cab! No seriously, Enemy of the State

Some of it was shot in Virginia. I remember having to scuba dive in the quary they shot they very first scene of that movie in. You know when the trophy is underwater? that's a quary in Virginia. I got my scuba diving license about 8-9 years ago and in order to get your license you have to go through 2 weeks of classroom tests and stuff, then you gotta do the pool tests and then they teach you how to use your equipment in the water in the pool, and in order to get your license you have to complete 3 dives and we had to go to that Quary. I dont remember exactly where it was but it was COLD and its preyy cool, its surrounded by huge rocks.

Alot of them have been verified through personal experience. People have seen these celebs state they are redskin fans, or they have said something like "how bout those redskins" after we have beaten dallas which verifies they are skin fans. When famous people get season tickets someone is bound to see them and then thats how these get out. I dont think people try to hide who they root for. lol
