I'll start..
Shoquistador, one of our lead animators, makes A-MAZING home made Salsa and sells it at work every week. I like it so much that I always reserve 2 jars of it.
..or if I'm lucky.. 3!
If this is fun, I'm going to ping other Rioters to share something neat they know about a co-worker :D
(hopefully this stays clean!)
RiotSlumber Jack40 votesHellooooo
Riot Peaches, one of our billing specialists, is a phenomenal speed-runner (gaming). My understanding is that he just missed getting a world record in Doom 64 on the "Watch Me Die!" difficulty this past year. He was a part of "Summer Games Done Quick" event, where he not only ran Doom 64 but also commentated on someone else's speed run of Mischief Makers.
The speed-running community seems to be a really cool bunch :)
Fancy Wolf9 votesCan confirm, Peaches is indeed a member of the speed running community.
Also can confirm, we are a really cool bunch <3
DSM V3 votesApprently Riot Peaches is also not too bad at league, I played with him just last week in mid/high Diamond.
ProCookiez2 votesya everytime I play with Riot Peaches he plays Lulu
RiotSlumber Jack6 votesYup, he's a Lulu main and almost plays her exclusively. He can play most supports at the same level, but he just really likes what Lulu brings to the table.
Bork Hammer 40k7 votesI didn't know peaches was a rioter! I love watching his doom 64 runs though.
Slumber Jax20 votesHellooooo
RiotSlumber Jack35 votesAwesome name
MrMilkManiac33 votesOoh, fun thread!
Riot Gharris (One of our coolest QA dudes) is actually an amazing dancer. He's made it his life mission to teach all of his friends how to dance as well as him (whether they want to or not).
RiotBlackrook17 votesRiot MilkManiac really does love milk. A lot. 
MrMilkManiac27 votesCan confirm.
ploki12210 votesY U NO red?
Slumber Jax3 votesRioters are actually not red by default. They get to be red if they've done a "forum training" thingy.
RiotSlumber Jack6 votesIf they have Riot in their name, they've done their training. However, this is probably their first time posting on these forums so they haven't been made "red" here yet.
RiotRiot Fairy Flan27 votesRiotSotere used to be is still a lawyer! And I used to be a nurse!

Mewo9 votesWhat was your stand in making Malphite?
JesusTkeTheWheel3 votesNurse checking in! What type of nursing did you do?
RiotRiot Fairy Flan10 votesI mostly handled the long-term care in geriatrics, with part of my wing split between hospice and post-op :]
JesusTkeTheWheel3 votesah cool! I'm a neuro ICU nurse. it always fascinates me how different nursing can be depending on what unit/floor you work on
RiotRiot Fairy Flan11 votesI hear you there! I find that generally when we say that we are/were a nurse/RN, people usually assume the ones you find at a gen.practitioner's office. There are so many types of us, we're like Pokemon! :D
FBI Surveillance1 votesWhat is your role at Riot? And how did you end up going into a game company from geriatrics?
RiotRiot Fairy Flan12 votesSkins Team QA Analyst, I am one of the Skins Gatekeepers of Quality! My team is involved from the concept stage of a skin to Live release as the voice for the players, making sure things are in good order! o u o
I like to joke that my family is bred to be in the medical field when people ask, so the majority of my relatives are in Healthcare with a handful in Business. After I graduated, got my nursing license and a job, I spent nearly all my spare time gaming while being super involved and active in gaming communities. From there I was noticed by the staff at Surrender@20 site and was taken in to initially help with their side projects :] (Shoutout to Moobeat!) From there I volunteered to take on more responsibility to maintain and organize the site, create tournaments and foster a safe community for fans of the site to gather :] Eventually we got a chance to go to PaxEast and there I was noticed by Rioters for my super enthusiasm for LoL :D And the rest is history!
I still love healthcare, but my true passion has and will always be gaming :]
RiotSherman12 votesRiotPreeti also used to be a lawyer!
RiotPreeti11 votesCan confirm :D
RiotIronStylus27 votesMore fun facts! Ohmikegoodness appears in this video of a bowing dear in Nara Japan which has inexplicably gone viral many times over.
Polaritie13 votesPerhaps you should thank it for its politeness by making a deer champion.
Cepheus1 votesGot anymore about Ohmikegoodness?
RiotIronStylus14 votesOh do I ever...
RiotRiot Baconhawk6 votesMe too! https://twitter.com/RiotBaconhawk/status/467544808500645888
He's actually our official Elevator Music Provider™.
RiotChronopolisCC26 votesWookieeCookie used to work at Disney Interactive, where he was the in-game personality for Tinkerbell in the Pixie Hollow MMO. That's right. Not only does he have the power of Wookiee Smite, he also has the power of Fairy Flight.
RiotWookieeCookie21 votesFlitterific fairy friends!
ChronopolisCC worked with me at Disney Interactive. While I was flying around in Pixie Hollow Online, he was keeping a watchful eye in Toontown Online.
Chances are if you were banned for some... not very Disney like activities...it's because he saw you!
On an unrelated note, the house rule for Player Support Pen and Paper games is no bards! (Because who would want to be one?) Except for Chronopolis who creates full fledged parody songs based off our misadventures.
Fly with you!
RiotRiot Draggles24 votesRiot Eglorian is really bad at fighting games, and his beard is actually real.
RiotScarizard24 votesI was going to make a list of Rioters and their quirks/tendencies/fun facts, but honestly, i didn't think it was worth detracting from the weight of this one in particular.
RiotNome doesn't have texting.
RiotIronStylus26 votesFun fact about Scarizard. When we met he said to me "We're going to be friends. That's just the way this is going to go."
RiotRiot Scruffy15 votesFeralpony is the best photoshop artist I have ever met. Someday his masterpieces will be selling for millions.
RiotDannamoth10 votesFeralpony is the best photoshop artist I have ever met. Someday his masterpieces will be selling for millions.

RiotIronStylus19 votesDue to his talents new Sion is going to be amazing.
