I was thinking earlier today about the best #2's ever (guess what I was doing) and I thought to myself, "You know, there are some pretty impressive people and things who weren't first.

How about Buzz Aldrin? Second man on the moon, but still an icon and in many ways, more recognizable than Neil Armstrong. And Bruce Lee! Many would never associate the Dragon as anything but #1, but he was also Kato, the Green Hornet's side kick in the short-lived TV show.

Any others come to mind?
