Let’s handle our business.

Rushmore of comedy brothers — Marx, Wayans, Coen, Stooges.

Rushmore of contact hitters since 1970 — Gwynn, Carew, Boggs and Ichiro, with apologies to Bill Buckner, who has been criminally under appreciated because of a monster error in 1986. This list of lowest K-to-AB rate is pretty staggering and puts Buckner in a very Gwynn-like category in terms of contact. https://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/at_bats_per_strikeout_career.shtml

Rushmore of “stones” in pop culture — Rolling Stones, Sharon Stone, “Papa was a Rolling Stone” and the entire cast of “Dazed and Confused.”

Rushmore of sports Kevins — Garnett, Durant, McHale and Costner.
