The feeling of hitting a half-court shot on an NBA-length court for 20,000 dollars can only be bested by 18,000 fans who have zero faith in you erupting after you drill the improbable 47-foot shot.
That’s exactly what happened at Oklahoma City’s Chesapeake Energy Arena during halftime of the Thunder’s game against the Utah Jazz. It marks the first time anyone has drilled a half court shot in that arena for a promotion in over two years. Everyone went home happy as the Thunder bested the Jazz, 104-98.
This feeling has gotta be better than sex. From the crowd’s POV:
