Two Signatures Two Dudes

A fact about July 4th, only two Founding Fathers signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. A fact about my free throw fireworks, there were two of us to see it. My buddy, Phil Khamoua, has season tickets to the Cavs and he took me to this game. This was supposed to be a special night. The Q allowed all season ticket holders to go on the court and shoot one free throw after the game. I was there to impress Lebron.

1870

A fact about July 4th, Independence Day became a federal holiday in 1870. A fact about my free throw fireworks, I pretended to play it cool for the 1, 870 seconds that I waited my turn. All the season ticket holders lined up with their cool season ticket necklaces and waited by the court to take a shot. The whole time I was joking around with Phil and cheesing at all the people who missed their chance. I was like, this is gonna be nothin.

Lost

A fact about July 4th, the original draft of the Declaration of Independence was lost. A fact about my free throw fireworks, after I air balled, I felt lost. I was like, is this real life? I just air balled at the Q. And I know, that Lebron knows, that I whiffed. He knows. The security guard rebounder told him. I couldn't wait to get outta there. You can hear me in the clip say, "No!".

Conclusion

Happy 4th! If you're shooting hoops today, don't take it too seriously. If you're shooting off fireworks today, take it very seriously.
