Rule Wager

I had this happen after a made basket in an Independent Tournament a few years ago. A1 slapped the ball away, gained possession and put it right back in the hole. I just scored the basket from the baseline (my partner had vacated).

B1 was trying to get a "T" for team A and argued the point for a second then took a TO. He wanted to bet me $100 that I was wrong. I told him I wouldn't take his money, but I would bet 20 push-ups at center court during halftime of the next game. He accepted the challenge.

The game went really well from that point, and after the game I sent another official who lived close to the gym home for his books. The PA announcer got wind of what was going on and had a little fun with it. Well, I showed A1 (and the PA guy) the rule, and the entire gym was applauding as A1 did his push-ups at center court during halftime.

PA announcer says "Well, I guess they get one right once in a while".
