1. Same reason every country has people that famous, but not so much outside the borders?

2. Probably most of our football players, it’s not really a global sport.

3. Oprah.

4. Maybe John Brown? Patrick Henry? Paul Revere? Though the latter had some hits with the Raiders in the 1970s and might be more well known elsewhere.

5. that USED to be Trump, if only things stayed that way…

6. Definitely [u/Grapp](https://www.reddit.com/u/grapp).

   He’s a legend here, but I doubt he’s known elsewhere.

7. Johnny Appleseed, Lewis and Clark, Patrick Henry, Paul Revere, come to mind.

8. My personal thought was Joey Chestnut

9. Kelly Rippa

10. Mr. Rogers.

11. R Kelly

12. The six flags guy? Is he international?

13. Jared the Subway guy.

14. Rob Gronkowski? Maybe.

15. Probably most great native Americans. Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Tecumseh, Geronimo, Sequoyah, Black Kettle, etc.
