So, am I the only one who didn't know Freddie Mercury was Parsi/Zoroastrian? Because that's kind of interesting, and I don't recall it ever coming up in conversations about Queen. But then I only found out Brian May is an astronomer last year. OK, maybe I just don't have that many conversations about Queen.

Also, there's a big statue of Mercury in Switzerland!

We took the train from Geneva to Venice, and I started out reading the guidebook entries for each town we passed through along Lake Geneva. One of the entries was really all about Mercury, since he'd lived there for so long.

I knew about the Parsi part. Half, I think? Didn't know about the Zoroastrian part. So that's the 2nd Zoroastrian I know/know of.
