SEARCH FOR AMERICA’S MOST GIFTED WRAPPER ALMOST WRAPPED UP

NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) – The search for America’s Most Gifted Wrapper will wrap up this Friday (Nov. 16) in New York. Four men and four women will square off in the Scotch Brand Most Gifted Wrapper Contest – a battle to see who is the most skilled at gift wrapping. Contestants will have to find a way to expertly wrap items like a tennis racket, a tricycle and a trampoline, and will be judged on speed and creativity. So far, the wrapper favored to win is 65 year old Gene Fedeli, who measures up at 6 foot 6 and 250 pounds. The gargantuan gift wrap pro says he’s been practicing for the match by wrapping a sauce pan to resemble a lady’s purse and wrapping a tree pruner so it looks like a rose with two stems.
