If you're Kyle Korver, and you're not busy perfecting the worst possible defensive stances ever, what do you do with your summer? Do you work on that deadly three point shot? Get yourself a tan on the coast? Maybe go camping with some buds?No, of course you don't. You help set a Guinness World Record for the longest game of kickball ever played. Of course.
Inside Hoops lets us in on the charity plans of Mr. Korver, which include a 25 hour kickball tournament held tomorrow in Philadelphia. The benefit goes towards the Helping Hand Rescue Mission and will feature a 25 hour kickball game with over 40 participants (Guinness stipulates that 4 players must be on the field at all times), sponsored by the Kyle Korver Foundation.
So the next time you see Korver curl into a tight ball in fear and anticipation of a driving small forward and decide to mock him for his girlish approach, maybe you should remember the man could trounce you at marathon kickball. Word.
