Yes, I'm serious. Thanks to J.E. Skeets of Ball Don't Lie and the Basketball Jones, I present to you footage from Kenny Roger's "Classic Weekend" in 1988. The video features NBA legends Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Dominique Wilkins, as well as country music legend Kenny Rogers. There are several pretty amazing moments in the game and some hilarious lines from the late Lakers play-by-play legend, Chick Hearn. That sure is a lot of legends in one video.
Now if we could just get Lebron and Kobe to play against Billy Ray Cyrus . . .
ReplyDeleteSeriously, the 80s were apparently a totally magic time. I really can't imagine too many pro athletes competing in something like this nowadays;.
