This happened
The following triple play actually happened in a real game between the Nashville Sounds and Omaha Storm Chasers and was not simply ripped from the Chappelle’s Show sketch about making And-1 mixtapes for non-basketball sports:

Brett in the promos department here is a friend of TedQuarters. He also stepped beyond his normal responsibilities to pitch and help create a documentary-style show following the Brooklyn Cyclones that will air on Wednesday. Part of it is about having good hair:

Germane to my interests
I imagine you’ve seen this video from the on-court brawl between Georgetown and Chinese Bayi Rockets in an international exhibition yesterday. If you haven’t:
Yikes. This doesn’t look good for anybody. The good news is it doesn’t appear anyone was seriously hurt and the teams have since made nice.
I imagine that for the Hoyas, the brawl had as much to do with unfamiliar officiating as anything. In Big East play, holding a guy down and punching him in the face almost never gets called, and refs usually let chair-throwing slide unless it’s in the first few minutes of the game.
I kid. A scary scene, obviously.

Forklift chase not quite as entertaining as it sounds, but still pretty entertaining
Fort Worth police recently got involved in a strange low-speed chase with a forklift….
“When we passed him, the guy was standing up chugging a beer and threw it at the cop car behind him,” Lowery said.
Police finally arrested 43-year-old Timothy Raines on Interstate 30. He was charged with a list of crimes including theft, aggravated assault on a peace officer and driving while intoxicated.

Here I thought Tim Raines was coaching somewhere, and a bit older than that, and not the type of guy to joyride a piece of construction equipment down an interstate with the law on his tail. But then I suppose it takes all kinds.
Honestly I’m surprised we don’t see more stories like this one. People leave the keys in forklifts and other awesome-looking pieces of heavy machinery way more often than you’d think. I know because I always check, and then when I see the keys I’m always tempted to take that sucker out for a spin.
TedQuarters does not endorse forklift theft, intoxicated driving, or endangering people and dogs.
Anyway, here’s the YouTube video. It’s not quite as entertaining as you’d hope, but it’s got a good Cloverfield-type feel to it. Language not at all safe for work:
