Talking OT - kids game announcement

Our local newspaper, The Oregonian, runs a "humor" column every morning, M-Sat. There's a different theme or topic each day. This morning, the topic was announcements found in church bulletins or posters. Supposedly, they're all true. This one stood out.

"Our youth basketball team is back in action Wednesday at 8 p.m. in the recreation hall. Come out and watch us kill Christ the King."

... and the criminals there, one on his right, the other on his left. Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, they know not what they do.” (Luke 23: 33-34)

I don't recall any reference to a basketball game in the Bible?

Sure you do. John 11:35.

It was right after He saw Mark call his first game.
