Was He An Eagle Scout?

Attaining the status of Eagle Scout is a noteworthy achievement, and is often an early sign that a man is going places with his life. Do you recall which high-achievers were Eagle Scouts when they were young? That’s the subject of today’s Lunchtime Quiz at mental_floss. I scored seven out of twelve. Surely you can do better! Link

How would anyone know something like this? Way too obscure.

Surely I can’t do better.

In fact, I did far worse.

8 of 12—not bad as of course I was just guessing and trying to base my guess on their personalities.

Huh. Where I grew up, attaining the rank of Eagle Scout was usually a sign that you’d soon be busted for selling weed.
