I guess it would need an internet connection to work but sounds fun.

I made a list that I kept on my phone of potential names (Provided below with the answers removed—I made the list three years ago so I know at least one of the living then are alive no more).

Actors: Gary Burghoff Alan Alda Wayne Rogers Jamie Farr Loretta Switt Harry Morgan Mike Farrell David Ogden Stiers McLean Stevenson Lary Linville Cast of Gilligan’s Island Crocodile Dundee

Musicians: Pete Best Stuart Sutcliffe Frankie Avalon Annette Funicello

Politics: Henry Kissinger Geraldine Ferraro Jane Byrne Michael Bilandic Eugene Sawyer Eddie Vrdolyak

I'd be a bit surprised if anybody who knew who Stuart Sutcliffe is didn't know he was dead. He's not particularly well-known outside of people who have read about the history of the Beatles, and the fact that he died while they were still in their heyday is probably the only thing that people who know about him would be remember.

It’s putting him with Pete Best that makes it tricky so that people have to remember which one is the one who died early. George (Harrison and Martin), Paul, John and Ringo are all gimmes.

Appreciate going deep on MAS*H
