Michael Jordan Prank Goes Wrong

Written by admin on December 8, 2009 – 10:22 pm -

If you were a fan at this game you would be mad at the owner for pulling this prank on you. Imagine going to this basketball game and thinking you would see this match up but then being told it was just a practical joke. I can see you pulling this prank on your friends but on paying customers. This is just wrong.

Utah Flash owner Brandt Anderson pulled off a WWE-like scripted hoax last night to the disappointment of 7,500 fans who believed that Michael Jordan and Bryon Russell, the former Utah Jazz forward, were about to play a one-on-one game during halftime of an NBA Development League game.

As you might recall, Russell challenged Jordan to a battle after remarks that MJ made about Russ during his Hall of Fame speech in September. Always one to see dollar bills and free publicity in a situation, Andersen said he would pay the winner of the challenge $100,000 for the charity of his choice.

And then things got wacky.

According to Dead spin, the Flash went so far as to hire a Jordan look-alike to walk around Provo on Monday — and even uploaded a YouTube video of “Jordan,” flanked by “bodyguards,” eating at a quiet local restaurant — to build some buzz.
