Remember the days when you had it . . . well,you still do. That jump shot may now be a set shot. You may not be as smooth as Sherry Salyer, have a jump shot like Ronnie Harris, be as athletic as Bobby Riley, or even dunk it like Kevin Bookout, but this will be a fun event. Each participant will be competing against those who graduated in their decade.
Example: 70’s basketball players will play a HORSE game against all those from 1970-1979.
It is a HORSE game, so no physical activity.
STARS COME OUT UNDER THE LIGHTS!
