The Longest Basketball

Yesterday I mentioned our new non profit society was involved with something tonight. Friends of ours have been involved this week in a fund raising event. The event involves trying to set a new Guiness Book of World for the longest basketball game. When it is done tomorrow evening they will have played 122 hours of basketball.
Our part involved Melody serving as a witness for four hours and I served as scorekeeper for those four hours.
When we left they had reached the 102 hour mark.
Money raised will help build schools and orphanges in third world countries.
