Raise a Guinness
Back in May 2008, a bunch of Masters baseball players organized a baseball game that lasted 33 hours, 15 minutes and 29 seconds. The idea was to raise money to fight prostate cancer. Mission accomplished: The game raised more than $40,000 for the Prostate Cancer Foundation. The idea was also to set a world record for the longest baseball game. Mission accomplished there, too. Ralph Hannah, the records manager for Guinness World Records, just recognized the game as the official world record holder for longest game. Now that's worth raising a Guinness for.
