Brian Baumgartner, a Twin Cities theatre staple for seven years and now one of the stars of "The Office," doesn't have the most sculpted, um, build. So how in the world did he top Jerry Rice, Oscar de la Hoya, Michael Jordan and Brent Hull. Turns out he knows how to get the most out of a bottle of Champagne.
During this past weekend's American Century Celebrity Golf Championship, Korbel hosted its 3rd annual Celebrity Spray Off, in which more than 40 competitors competed to see who could get the cork to travel the furthest upon opening. Baumgartner outdistanced the field with a mark of 75 feet. That was more than twice the length posted by Jordan.
Cheers, Brian!
