Back in the late 1970s a buddy of mine attended a 76er’s basketball game at the Spectrum in Philly. Half time they called one ticket stub number for a chance to throw from half court and win a new car and a trip to Jamaica. His number was called and he took his throw from half court and swished the shot. The crowd all cheered! However it took my bud 6 months to collect. He finally had to hire a lawyer to get his prizes. The 76er’s even stated that he didn't make the shot! The throw was on film and they finally paid.
