Friday called for a strength training or yoga, but before my trip home, I had the lucky opportunity to join some friends on a visit to the College Basketball Experience, located right next to the Sprint Center in downtown Kansas City.
I had never been before, and had a great time! It is a must do if you live anywhere near KC, or plan on visiting. There are several different skills stations, including free throw contests, dunking stations with different sized goals, a three point contest, last second shots for a WIN, measuring your vertical and wingspan, and hosting your own segment of Sportscenter.

Getting our dunk on! |
SPORTSCENTER! |
I really had a great time, and found the place extremely family friendly. There were kids everywhere!
However, the trip was an eye opening experience for me. Mainly because:
- My vertical has apparently decreased by almost 10 inches since my senior year of high school (damn you gravity!)
- My ever increasing endurance doesn't pertain to basketball (I was sucking air when playing 2 on 2)
- I may not be able to hang with 17 year olds anymore (at least not easily...)
- My shot is gone. Absolutely gone.
Regardless, I didn't get blocked once (lie), and I could do some sick dunks on a 9 foot goal. OFF THE BACKBOARD 2 HANDED WINDMILL!!!
It was also a pretty good and fun crosstraining workout. I feel really sore today! That's a good sign!
I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday, and all the good boys and girls get a visit from Kriz Kringlez!
Thanks for reading!
