3rd Story Glory

Improbable, yes. Daunting, to say the least. Incredible, probably. Impossible, well nothing is impossible.

Last evening while the Boston Celtics were dismantling the Detroit Basketball Pistons a friendly game of P-I-G turned into a quest for a group of young men to accomplish something. That something has been dubbed the "Third Story Glory" and consists of one of those young men shooting a basketball from the third story balcony pictured here and converting a basketball field goal.

Where did they find the energy to achieve such greatness? There was a small window of time earlier in the day that something miraculous happened that, in retrospect, was the catalyst of the day. The experience obviously helped this unbelievable basketball shot realization occur. Something that Wilt Chamberlin would be proud of for sure, and there will be more on this in the coming days.
