The Southeast Missourian asked students at Jackson Middle School, "Would you like to be Tiger Woods?"
Jason Kell: "No. I would like to be Michael Jordan. They say he is the best basketball player ever. He's really famous. Tiger Woods is too, but I don't like golf."
Colby Lohman: "No. I am comfortable being myself. I don't want to be a celebrity."
Megan Hager: "No. I like being myself. I would not like people cheering for me. If I won a tournament, I would feel bad for those who lost."
Jarrett Brown: "Yes. I would like to be famous like he is. He is a great golfer and will be playing the sport for a long time."
Carrie Bell: "No. I would rather be Mariah Carey. She's a really good singer and I have some of her albums."
