Famed Film Actor Prepares for Grueling 100-Mile Outdoor Adventure Race in Scotland

NEW YORK, Nov. 18 /PRNewswire/ — DRAMBUIE(R) liqueur today announced that Seann William Scott, well known for his irreverent roles in movies such as the “American Pie” film series, and most recently in “Role Models,” will compete in the 2009 DRAMBUIE Pursuit — a legendary, once-in-a-lifetime outdoor adventure race across the Scottish Highlands. In May 2009, DRAMBUIE will host the adrenaline-packed competition by sending teams of four to compete in a series of grueling outdoor trials including archery, white-water rafting, dune-buggy racing, and many other breathtaking challenges across Scotland. Seann William Scott is now seeking to assemble his own team to compete alongside him and fans can apply for the chance to join him on this all-expenses-paid trip by visiting www.pursuitof1745.com.

Seann will join other teams selected to compete in this epic race across the punishing terrain of the Scottish Highlands, following a 100-mile course that has its roots in a history of passion and rebellion. In 1745, Scotland’s rebel Bonnie Prince Charlie fled through the Highlands after a failed attempt at taking over the British throne, leaving to his loyal subjects his greatest gift: the secret recipe for DRAMBUIE. Now, nearly 300 years later, American teams will be flown to Scotland to retrace the Prince’s bold voyage from the Isle of Skye to Inverness. Taking place in May 2009, the DRAMBUIE Pursuit will offer teams the chance to race through some of the most challenging terrain in the world while taking in the awe-inspiring views of Scotland.

With several unforgettable and energetic comedic movie roles under his belt, Seann will bring his passion and vigor to the Scottish Highlands in this unique race of a lifetime. Seann’s unbridled enthusiasm will serve him and his team well when competing in the 2009 DRAMBUIE Pursuit.

“I’ve been training for something like the DRAMBUIE Pursuit my whole life,” said Seann William Scott. “I love the outdoors, extreme adventure activities and can’t wait to race across the Highlands. I’m looking for the best and the brightest to join my team of modern day rebels — we’ll be unstoppable!”

“Seann William Scott and his team will certainly be a force to reckon with at the 2009 DRAMBUIE Pursuit,” said Valerie Fender, Marketing Manager for DRAMBUIE. “We couldn’t be happier that Seann will compete in the race, as both onscreen and off, he exemplifies Bonnie Prince Charlie’s spirit of rebellion, passion and adventure.”
