Anyone watching the UConn - St. Johns Big East (basketball) championship? At half time 7up gave a guy 25 seconds to shoot baskets for cash. The free-throw line was $75,000 for each shot he made and a few feet away diagonal was $100,000 etc. Poor guy missed all 11 shots he attempted and the crowd booed him relentlessly (hey, we're talking New Yorkers here; no tolerance for mediocrity!). Yes, he did get $10,000 as a consolation prize.
