WWE superstars Kofi Kingston and The Miz engaged in an embarrassing game of basketball
The game that the fan mentioned took place in Lafayette, Louisiana. Both Kofi Kingston and The Miz tried to score for several minutes but couldn't, which resulted in several fans becoming dejected. Kofi Kingston recalled the incident on The New Day's podcast.
"I had just done deadlifts and legs on the same day and then Miz comes in and he wants to play some basketball. 'Oh, we've got a basketball court over here!' 'Alright, let's play!' And it was in the middle of the summer, so we go to the court and there's a summer camp going on and how cool is it that these kids get to see, 'oh, WWE Superstar Kofi Kingston and The Miz playing basketball here. Let's gather around!' I'm talking about 100 kids, bro, and they're over surrounding us in the game. I think it was just to 7 or 11."
Kofi then recalled how 10 minutes into the game neither of them could hit a single shot and the kids' excitement was starting to dwindle. To make matters worse, campers started to walk away from the game.
"The kids are at a summer camp," Woods said. "They literally have nothing else to do, but watch this game. And they walked away because it was so bad," Woods said. [H/T Wrestling Inc.]
Fans will hope that The Miz will have a better showing this time at the All-Star game considering it is taking place on national tv.
