Robyn74 I don't want to ruin this for anyone but which do you think he cares more about, the money or the shot? -

I'm surprised that he wasn't more upset.

Robyn74 Me too! I thought he was going to cry when he first found out. I think I might have. -
Bill Sexton That's awesome. The crowd played it's part PERFECTLY. The look on Amir's face when he finally saw Streeter was priceless. Well done, well done. -
paidsurveys I am surprised. What a prank it is?
Entire State Of Maryland Roped Into Online Prank War [Whimsy]
Deadspin —
Remember the Yankee Stadium proposal prank where one goofball used a fake marriage proposal to humiliate his goofball friend? Well, 18 months later, revenge is a dish best served at a Maryland basketball game. The goofballs in question are Amir and Streeter from College Humor. While Streeter was on the "slapped in the face" end of the Stadium prank, he one upped his colleague this time by incorporating the entire crowd at last night's Maryland-Wake Forest game into his payback scheme. The set up: Amir believed he would be taking a half court shot for $500,000. The twist: He would be blindfolded, so only the crowd reaction would let him know ...

On the Tube: CollegeHumor.com pulls greatest prank in history of sports
tonyblogs.net - Sports news, humor, videos and prognostications. —
Streeter and Amir of CollegeHumor.com have been going back and forth in a series of "prank wars" for a while now. During halftime of last night's Maryland-Wake Forest game, Streeter pulled one of the greatest pranks ever known to man on his pal Amir, convincing him that he just won $500,000 and getting the entire 18,000+ crowd at the game to get in on the act.

Because you can insult the Mavs in any language (Thanks to Borosai from ST.com)
Tonight is Noche Latina, so we get to see Los Spurs play at Dallas versus Los Mavs. That's worked as great for us in the past as White's sombrero did for him, so I'm definitely looking forward to it. ...

Leggings under a skirt.
Today’s outfit that I don’t understand is leggings under a skirt. All guys like skirts so why throw it off with wearing leggings? Leggings alone are fine, skirts alone are fine, but both together just don’t work.
IU almost beat Michigan State last night, that would have been awesome.
I think Purdue is starting to do something similar to UofI [Link]

Remember the above prank that Amir from College Humor.com pulled on Streeter when he pulled off a "fake proposal" at Yankee Stadium? Well, Streeter decided to get him back in one of the funnier pranks that I have ever seen. He got Amir to believe that he hit a half-court shot for $500,000 at a Maryland vs. Wake Forest game.

Collegehumor Takes Over the Comcast Center
Ballin' is a Habit —
In college, I was a huge fan of the website collegehumor.com. Call me pathetic if you will, but a part of me always wanted to have my picture, in the midst of doing something legendary, posted on the site for all the world to see (sadly, I never made it ... my ex did though). Some of the best stuff on CH was the prank war between Streeter Seidel and Amir Johnson. Over the course of a year, Streeter and Amir did some of the most awful things one could imagine to each other, culminating in Amir pwning Streeter by faking a marriage proposal from Streeter to his girlfriend ... on the giant screen at Yankee Stadium ... during a game. Hilarity ...
The Meanest Thing Ever
Dime Magazine —
Quick back story: These two guys from CollegeHumor.com are apparently in a long-running prank war. A guy named “Streeter” has set up his boy Amir to take a blindfolded half-court shot for $500,000 at a University of Maryland game, but while Amir was in a back office signing fake release forms, Streeter asked the crowd to help him prank Amir by cheering like the dude nailed the shot, making him think he just won half a million dollars… We’d show you the whole official video from Collegehumor ...
College Humor Maryland Prank War, Funny Video
NESW Sports, Sports Videos —
College Humor Maryland Prank War, Funny Video. This video is everywhere. I was hoping there was no strong language so I could post it, and it is ok. The College Humor guys can sometimes get a little salty with the language, but they wisely kept this one clean so it could go viral. Anyways, Deadspin broke this yesterday.
The entire stadium plays along in one of the best pranks I have ever seen. I am not going to give anything away. This is in retaliation to the Yankees Stadium prank. Good stuff. ...
Blogrolling: Trees Paint, iCheat, Hiding in Ikea Sight and an epic prank
Five Tool Tool - The Sports Blog That Loves You Back —
The Larch... is an artiste. iCheat, for your iPhone, with the iBlackjack. I'm pretty sure that iPain results. I also love that the first commenter is either the developer or a very inventive spammer (most likely the latter). I don't want to be seen in Ikea, either. Nick at IWS examines the disappearing Tulowitzki. Consider it a preview of my sleeper/busts fantasy baseball column, which is going to be 100% opposite of what I really think this year, just to throw my roto league competitors off the scent. (And if it's 100% opposite, it'll also be really helpful to you, unlike past years...) Prank Wars continues with ...
