On a usual Saturday

On a usual Saturday, Rodney would just be kicking back relaxing and watching the Marquette game. Then he was watching the television when he saw a commercial about Marquette. The commercial said that you could win season tickets for the Marquette Golden Eagles basketball team if you can jump over a pool full of hungry sharks. Rodney knew he had to jump that pool of sharks even if it meant his life.

Later that day Rodney went onto the internet to search where to go to; to jump the pool of sharks, when he found a website that said this offer ends in the next 2 hours. He also found the street address it was Sylvester 21st street. He immediately screamed saying that's at least 1 hour 45 minutes away. He called his friend Johnny Tupkins. Johnny answered the phone saying "Are you crazy? It's four o'clock in the morning!" Rodney replied "I know But I need these tickets can you drive me?" He also said "Fine I will, but I get to go to the games with you."

Rodney arrived at the pool with only 15 minutes to spare. He had his bike and a helmet, and his enthusiasm to do this crazy stunt. Then he looked down from the top of the ramp and says the Great Whites and the Hammer Heads. Johnny says "Are you going to go already I'm tired it's 5 o'clock in the morning." Rodney replied “I don't know if I want to do this anymore." Johnny answered, "WHAT! I drove you 100 miles away and you’re going to pull this crap." Rodney said, “Your right I'll do it, right after Johnny said you better hurry you only have 15 seconds. Rodney sprinted down to his bike he ran, he biked, and he made the leap! But he had to land in 3 seconds as the clock was ticking down Rodney looked down and saw the sharks jumping, one of the Great Whites just jumped and popped Rodney's tired he had an emergency landing. As the clock was ticking 3...2...1 Rodney landed!!! As everyone was cheering Johnny ran over because he was in pain, he landed on his spine, he was paralyzed from the hip down. Rodney did and succeeded the challenge, but he will not be able to go to any Marquette games again.
