Guess who won that one?
Fine, I’ll say it: The Alaska Plane Pull was rigged.
No matter how hard local boy and cable star Joel McHale and 17 able-bodied teammates pulled, the Boeing 737-800 parked at the Museum of Flight last Tuesday wouldn’t budge.
Along came Seahawks QB Russell Wilson with his crew, who pulled the plane the required 25 feet in 16 seconds.
“Well, that wasn’t embarrassing at all,” McHale said when it was over.
The event was to raise money for Strong Against Cancer, a national initiative inspired by immunotherapy research being done at Seattle Children’s Research Institute.
