Will it be the boyfriend who faked a broken leg to avoid a formal dance during the World Series? How about the guy whose sixth-grade teacher caught him with a radio in his pants? Or will it be the sailor who diverted a Navy submarine to get the right frequency for the game?

When: Tuesday, Dec. 7, 12:30-1:30 p.m.

What: Tom Arnold, Michael Strahan and super fan (Gregory "Catman"
Good) will select the sports fan who has gone the lowest to get
