Default If you could have dinner with 5 people....
Who would it be? They have to be alive and you would be in their company for one night one on one.

My answer

Bill O'Reily
Darrell Waltrip
Merle Haggard
Bobby Knight
Denzel Washington

I came up with my list in a short few minutes, and will most likely add many as time goes on, but it is a fun mental excercise.
