Kevin from "The Office" is a Michigan Fan

We can add Brian Baumgartner (Kevin) to the list of celebrity Michigan fans. Speaking at the Motor City Comic Con yesterday, he told MLive:

"Back in another lifetime ago, I did a theater production at a big theater, it was either adjacent to or on the Michigan campus. I remember walking around the Michigan campus. I still have my Michigan sweatshirt and for that reason alone I root for Michigan over Ohio State. I don’t know why. I have the sweatshirt and I walked around town for two weeks and I’m a Michigan fan."

At the Tigers game last night he beat a fan in a contest of, “name the most characters from the show, ‘The Office.’” He then yelled, “SUCK IT!!!!” Into the mic when he won. All played on the video board.

I went to high school with Brian Baumgartner and Ed Helms. Brian was a senior and Ed a junior when I was a freshman. I'm friends with Brian's younger sister, who is my year. 

 

Great that he likes Michigan. Never knew!

I wonder where the production was. The Power Center? Hill Auditorium? Mendelssohn?

THESE ARE THE DETAILS WE NEED TO KNOW!
