@PicturesFoIder ski jumping is just a different type of sport
@PicturesFoIder Student outsmarted the teacher 😭
The insurance company that was required to make the payoff, American Hole 'N One Inc, voided the payment because Calhoun had played college basketball, a violation of the rules. However, the sponsors of the event, Coca-Cola, the Lettuce Entertain You restaurant, and the Bulls, pledged to cover the prize if the insurance company would not. As a result, Calhoun got $50,000 a year over the next 20 years. The insurance company still benefited from the publicity. The shot, and the news coverage it gained, are credited with the rise of similar promotions during sport events.
@PicturesFoIder The Bulls paid him 50k per year over the next 20 years 👏
@PicturesFoIder Did they give him anything?
@PicturesFoIder yeah this is just a routine shot in college basketball
