John Savage

just out of curiosity, why does everyone play this game with kevin bacon? why not other actors?

Because it's funny, he's been in a lot of movies often with ensemble casts, and because the blokes who thought up the game originally used Kevin Bacon - which has the same number of syllables as "separation".

Whilst Mr. Bacon is fun to use can anyone Link Verne Troyer (mini me) to Arnold Shwarzenegger?

Yes. Yes I can.

Verne was in Goldmember where Danny Devito has a cameo
