I headed to my university's gym today to play some basketball. It's been a while since I've played because I've had midterms and I've been sore from intense lifting the last month or so.
Between games typically the people who are waiting for the next game shoot around on the half which the game is not being taking place and scurry off the court as the ball comes back down.
So I'm shooting around and decide to see how high I can sky above the rim. So I get back to about 15 feet away from the basket and drive towards the hole. Execution is perfect, I slam the ball and snap the front half of the rim off.
Maybe you didn't hear me... I snapped the front half of the rim off.
Needless to say when the ball came down again people were pretty upset that I had ended their game and all games on that particular court prematurely.
This where a camera phone would be useful. =(
And to you bitter people who can't dunk and are looking to rain on my parade and bravado. I stopped in the adminstration office and told them what happened and they said don't sweat it.
