Everyone who attends Mizzou knows it’s the best place for a college education and some fun. We proudly represent the black and gold for four years and the rest of our lives. Mizzou has been successful in producing some notable alumni for many, many years. Here are some “celebrities” who proudly call themselves Tigers:

Brad Pitt. Of course. One credit short of a journalism degree, but still a Tiger and a Sigma Chi.

Sheryl Crow. A Kappa Alpha Theta that started at Mizzou before making it big in the music business.

David Koechner, also known as Todd Packer from The Office.

Tennessee Williams was a famous playwright and an Alpha Tau Omega. One of his well-known works is A Streetcar Named Desire.

Jon Hamm, also known as Don Draper in Mad Men.

Richard Kinder is currently #36 on Forbes list of the 400 richest Americans, but before he was a big-time businessman, he was a Sigma Nu at Mizzou.

Samuel M Walton, a Beta Theta Pi, can be thanked for prices that fit our college budgets because he is the creator of Walmart.

Andrew and Peggy Cherng both graduated from Mizzou and went on to be the founders of Panda Express.

Jonathan Murray was a Tiger before he co-created The Real World and helped produce Keeping Up With the Kardashians and Project Runway.

Sally Ann Salsano created The Jersey Shore after her time at Mizzou.

However, all current 36,000 students and the multitude that has graduated previously are awesome because, well, we’re Mizzou Tigers.
