The point isn’t that everyone has a Bacon number of 2. We already knew that!

The point is to test your movie trivia knowledge by seeing how close YOU can get to 2!

Hah! Found a bug. Ari Greenberg acted in First Wives Club with Bette Midler (BN 2) but doesn’t have one. Actuall he also acted with Daniel Stern, who has a BN of 1 from Diner.  
My daughter would have at most a 3 from acting on TV with Adam West if TV counted.
