Joel Branstrom Amazing Basketball Shot
January 30th, 2010 by napa high
UPDATE: Branstrom has tickets and accommodations for his whole family to the Final Four!!! *i did not make this video, I am simply redistributing it* In an attempt to spoof College Humors Prank Wars Half Court Million Dollar Shot, Joel Branstrom; Womens Basketball coach and science teacher was told he would win NCAA tickets for making a half court, blindfolded shot. What he didn’t know, was that while he was away, the entire Olathe Northwest Student body was told to cheer when he missed the basket completely (as it happened on colleghumor) What they didn’t expect was Branstrom to not only make, but nothing but net the shot stunning the whole crowd. He wasn’t supposed to make the impossible shot, so there never were tickets, but with the power of the internet, hopes are high that somewhere, someone will see this and offer up some tickets for a truly amazing shot. Branstrom said he thought he was gonna get hit by a pie, or something while blindfolded, but took the shot after some hesitation. In disbelief, he was truly stunned by the instant replay

I go to this school and i dont care if you dont believe Me. I’m the kid with the trombone, grey hoodie and white tee shirt under the left Raven wing on the top row of the bleachers. I would have never thought that this shot would have made international hearing.

I can assure the doubters that this is no fake. I’m from Scotland, UK and this was shown as a feature on the BBC, Wed morning 27th. Jan. - you can bet the most-trusted news institute on the planet did their research before running this story.
BTW, this is truly wonderful; I sent it to all my friends and I watch it all the time. Great!

Use that as a play to help the ONW girls team….3 pts in a half against OE.

Joel Branstrom, the popular girls’ basketball coach at the school, was a walk-on for the University of Kansas basketball team in 1997. Clearly he had the basketball chops to make such a prank risky, at best.
That Kansas team, by the way, was ranked No. 1 headed into the NCAA tournament but lost one game short of the Final Four
