Last month, the ShamWow! won our "As Seen On TV" Tournament. And while ShamWow! owner and spokesman Vince Offer accepted winning the title over the phone, we brought him into our studio on Friday to give him his prize.
It's a ShamWow! tie made by the great folks at Tiecrafters in New York City. We gave them some ShamWow! material and they did wonders.
Vince, who didn't quite have his hair spiked like he does in the commercial, was impressed with the operation of our network and got to talk to Maria Bartiromo after the "Closing Bell."
Check out the photos below from Vince's tour of CNBC, courtesy of our own Jonathan Li.
