Ball coming to rest - photo op

This happened to me once several years ago late in a game that had also been decided as to who would win. We actually took a few minutes to allow the fans, school officials and even players to take photos.

It was a crowd pleaser for sure and everyone leaves the gym with a smile.

It's the first time I have ever seen it and I was wondering how often it really happens - How many of you have actually seen it happen?
I've seen it twice in same school, same gym, same basket. Both times on FTA's. Couple of seasons apart.

AND

Once at a JUCO women's game on a layup attempt. This season.

must be the air up here.
