The 480 Club is inhabited by those octochamps from the 9 round era who amassed a total score of at least 480 points during their tenure, equivalent of an average score of 60 points per show.

In addition, due to an administrative error in his second game, his total should have been 546 (and 485 from winning games), or 485.3 when scaled.

Those listed in bold are also members of the 500 club, a subdivision of the 480 club whose members achieved the psychologically important aggregate score of 500 during their run.
