BRETT FAVRE




SO YOU THOUGHT YOU'VE SEEN THE LAST OF BRETT FAVRE ON SUNDAYS? NOPE, HE'S SCHEDULED TO PLAY IN THE AMERICAN CENTURY CHAMPIONSHIP GOLF TOURNAMENT. COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE NBC CELEBRITY GOLF TOURNAMENT.



THIS YEAR'S ACTION BEGINS JULY 8 - 13 ON THE EDGEWOOD GOLF COURSE BEHIND HARVEYS CASINO AT LAKE TAHOE AND IS BROADCAST LIVE ON NBC SUNDAY JULY 13.

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CALLED THE "SUPERBOWL OF CELEBRITY SPORTS", AND ALONG WITH BRETT FAVRE, OTHER NEW PLAYERS INCLUDE, DALE JARRETT, DARRYL STRAWBERRY, AND DAUNTE CULPEPPER.

THE EVENT IS A SERIOUS GOLF TOURNAMENT AND YOU CAN BET ON THE OUTCOME AT THE LOCAL SPORTS BOOKS, BUT IT'S ALSO PACKED WITH FUN, AND SPECTACULAR SCENERY FROM LAKE TAHOE.

LAST YEAR RYAN LONGWELL, LONG TIME FIELD GOAL KICKER FOR THE PACKERS, TEED UP A FOOTBALL ON THE TEE OFF AND KICKED THE FOOTBALL WELL INTO THE LAKE, WHERE A HAPPY BOATER CAUGHT THE KICK. THIS YEAR I EXPECT WE WILL SEE BRETT'S FAMOUS FORM AND A FEW FOOTBALL PASSES.

THE CELEBRITY GOLF TOURNAMENT IS ONE OF THE ENTERTAINMENT HIGHLIGHTS OF SUMMER AT LAKE TAHOE.
